Meet adorable seniors Firina and Buckwheat!

Firina is a sweet, old lady who is very talkative she absolutely loves attention and will yell at you until you say hello. She loves playing with feather toys or relaxing on your lap. She can usually be found in the cat towers or watching the birds outside the windows. She is looking for a family that will be patient as she gets anxious with new environments and will take some extra time adjusting.

Buckwheat is very talkative and loves attention he will paw at you if you stop petting him. He is looking for a family that will be patient with him as he gets anxious in new settings, so he may take extra time adjusting, but his medication helps a lot with this. Buckwheat can usually be found lounging in the cat towers or cuddled up in a bed.

Firina and Buckwheat are a bonded pair and would love a home together. They would do best in a quieter home with older children and possibly a mellow dog with proper introductions.

Both cats are fixed, vaccinated, microchipped, tested negative for FIV and FeLV, and treated for parasites. Their adoption fee is $200 as a pair. Do you have the purrfect home for these sweet seniors?

Additional adoption info

* We do require adopters to be at least 21 years old.
* If you are leasing, we do ask that you provide a copy of your rental agreement showing that cats are allowed.
* We also ask that all adults living in the home agree with the adoption and addition of a feline friend to the family.
* For families with young children (under 6), kittens over 6 months are best.
* If the pet is to be alone for a significant amount of time, we ask that you consider adopting an older kitten or adult, or consider adopting two kittens to keep each other company. Young kittens are susceptible to social-depression if alone for a significant amount of time.
* We also discourage "gift" adoptions unless it is from a parent to a minor child.

Our adoption fee of $100 (cash/check) includes feline leukemia/FIV testing, deworming, flea preventative, microchip, and age-appropriate vaccines. All Tigerlily cats are thoroughly examined by a veterinarian. All cats and kittens are spayed/neutered prior to being available for adoption.
