How this pet arrived: Anubis was brought in by his previous owner on December 18, 2024.Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Anubis and his best friend Apollo #906609! This bonded pair is the perfect package-playful, affectionate, and always ready to entertain. Whether they're chasing toys, cuddling together, or just being their charming selves, they're guaranteed to fill your home with joy. While they're full of personality, Anubis and Apollo are shy and fearful at first and will need a safe space to acclimate in their new home as they build trust. Their bond is unbreakable, so they must be adopted together! If you're ready for double the love and double the playtime, Anubis and Apollo are waiting to join your family. Don't forget to grab a couple of cat carriers for a safe journey home! Primary Color: Blue Secondary Color: White Age: 1yrs 0mths 1wks

Skittles is extremely sweet. Has a huge personality. Very playful. Enjoys fetch nurd balls for fun. He loves to snuggle all the time. We are rehoming him because he has does not get along with his sibling. We've tried numerous avenues, and both seems to be working. He is a wonderful cat and deserves a better living arrangement.
