Story
Meet Shadow! He was born on August 12, 2022 and weighs 12 pounds. He has a very unique coat, it’s a mix of white and black individual hairs making him look grey, and his eyes are mint green. His parents were both Silver Shaded Chinchilla, with mostly white coats with very little black. His mother Cupcake is also listed here. (I am including a picture of him as a kitten on this listing.) He has been neutered, microchipped, dewormed and had all his shots. He only likes to eat kibble, but you can try to offer him wet food, it may change as he gets older. He currently eats Purina Cat Chow in different flavors like chicken and seafood. He likes bits of cooked chicken, banana bread, and Churus for treats. He also drinks a lot of water. He is currently using pine pellet litter but is also used to clumping litter. He is very friendly, affectionate, and cuddly and purrs very loudly. He enjoys chasing balls around and being held like a baby or sitting in your lap. He is an indoor only cat.

Story
Meet Cupcake! She was born on April 9 2021 and is 10 pounds. She is a British Shorthair with green eyes, and her color type is Silver Shaded Chinchilla. She has been spayed, microchipped, dewormed, and had all her shots. She eats wet and dry food (Purina Fancy Feast both Pate and Grilled, and Purina Cat Chow in Seafood flavor and Chicken flavor), and loves Churu treats. She likes pets on her terms, when she warms up to you she will want a lot of them. She has a quiet temperament and likes to chase balls and play with the feather wand, or sit next to you while you work or watch tv. She would be best as the only cat in the home because she gets jealous for attention. (For example, she gets along with her parents but not her siblings.) She is an indoor only cat. She currently is using pine pellet litter but has also used clumping litter.
