My story

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

How this pet arrived:
Flaco was brought in by his previous owner on January 2, 2026.

Why this pet is the one for you:
Meet Chef #915759 and Flaco #915766! Chef and Flaco are bonded, which means they must be adopted together. Chef, as the name implies, takes his role in the kitchen quite seriously, while Flaco is always ready for the next course. While they are absolutely inseparable and spend their days following each other around like a two-cat parade, they do have one minor quirk: they haven't quite mastered the art of "sharing is caring" when it comes to dinner time.

When fed in tight quarters, they can get a bit defensive, likely arguing over who gets the Michelin star for the fastest eating. To keep the peace in your household, they require a "socially distanced" dining experience. Feeding them in separate areas at least 10 feet apart will ensure that their relationship remains focused on love rather than culinary competition.

When they aren't busy guarding their bowls, you can find them glued to each other's sides. They are frequently spotted lounging together in a sunbeam or perched at the window, judging the neighborhood birds with synchronized stares. They are a bit cliquey and might give a hiss to any other cats who try to join their exclusive club.

If you have a dog, it must be a "cat-savvy" professional who understands that Chef and Flaco run the show. They will need a slow introduction with a separate "safe zone" where they can adjust to their new canine roommate at their own pace. If you're looking for a pair of shadows to follow you around and provide endless entertainment, Chef and Flaco are ready to serve up a lifetime of companionship. Don't forget to bring two secure cat carriers for a safe ride home
