My story

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

Meet Jimmie and Francis — the dynamic duo of sweetness and mischief!

These two adorable brothers are growing more confident every day and showing off their distinct personalities.

Jimmie is the soft-hearted sweetheart of the pair. He can be shy at first and tends to startle easily if you move too fast, but once he feels safe, he’s all love. Jimmie adores attention — if you stop petting him too soon, he’ll meow to remind you he’s not done! He’s a total purr machine who loves gentle affection and being close to his person.

Francis is the mischievous explorer. He’s curious, bold, and always looking for the next adventure — whether that’s investigating a new room or playfully ambushing his brother around corners. He enjoys being petted but prefers to come to you on his own terms. When he’s ready for affection, he melts under your hand; when he’s not, he’ll happily zoom off for more exploration.

Both boys love to play and chase each other through the house. They’ll bring endless entertainment as they wrestle, race, and show off their silly antics. They just need time, patience, and a calm environment to build trust and let their true personalities shine. Once they do, you’ll see that these two shy boys have hearts full of love — and a whole lot of playful energy!

They’d love to be adopted together, where they can continue to grow in confidence side by side.

Prior to adoption, all kittens are spayed/neutered, tested for FIV/FELV, vaccinated and microchipped. Kittens under 5 months old must be adopted with a buddy or into a house where there's a kitten-friendly pet.

This kitten is currently in a foster home. To meet this kitten, please fill out an adoption application so that we'll have your contact information, and we'll get back to you as soon as possible. www.thedancingcat.org/adopt
