Story
🐾 Two Sweet Bonded Brothers Looking for Their Forever Home 🐾 I’m looking for a loving home for my two 15-month-old brothers. They are bonded and need to stay together. Both boys are: * ❤️ Neutered * 🐾 15 months old * 🥰 Extremely cuddly and affectionate * 🎾 Playful and energetic * 🐶 Great with dogs * 💕 Very sweet and people-oriented They truly are wonderful cats and deserve a loving home where they can continue to grow up together. They love playing with each other, cuddling, and being around their people. Unfortunately, I’m having to find them a new home because my son has developed an allergy to them. This is an extremely difficult decision, and my priority is finding someone who will love and care for both of them. Please do not contact me if you are only interested in one cat. They are bonded brothers and must be adopted together. I’m looking for a responsible, loving home where they will be treated as family. ❤️ Please tell me a little about yourself, your home, and

Story
Junior and Sissy are brother and sister. I love both of their personalities. Junior loves to attack his Monster doll or my toes, which ever he comes upon first! Sissy thinks the bouncing cardboard is a bug she needs to catch. These guys are total loves both to people and each other. Both also gets along great with other kitties. They were born indoors when their mom Honey was rescued very pregnant so they are healthy and happy kittens. Junior and Sissy would love to be adopted together, which is our first choice. We may consider separating to be a buddy to another young active kitty. If you bring these two into your home they will be a wonderful addition to your family.. Junior and Sissy are healthy, vaccinated, neutered, dewormed, negative for FeLV/FIV and microchipped. Please complete our adoption questionnaire at Southerncountiesrescue.org to meet or learn more about Junior and Sissy. Personality traits Friendly, Gentle, Playful, Smart, Curious, Funny
