My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Oates and Hall are delightful siblings searching for a forever home together. Oates is shy but has an incredibly loving heart. Once he feels safe and secure, he blossoms into a sweet companion, offering gentle purrs that will melt your heart. He loves being pet, and is highly appreciative of chin and tummy rubs, but requires gentleness with everything. He is very content laying beside you, especially if you have a hand resting on him.

While Oates is still a work in progress when it comes to being picked up, he likes to follow you around in the hopes that you will bend over and pet him. Oates likes to play with toys. Favourites include springs, balls, and kickers. When a toy mouse is caught, Oates makes a lot of noise. He is very proud of his catch and wants everyone to know what he has done. He also spends time wrestling and playing with his brother, Hall.

During quiet time, he enjoys sitting at the window watching the action outside or napping in his favourite cat tree. Patience and love are key with Oates and Hall. They will need time and a quiet home with no young children or dogs.

Must adopt with Hall.
