Story
I am at Oakland Animal Services in kennel Cat Adoption:9If you're looking for double the luck and twice the purrs, meet Curly and Mo! These 3-month-old black kittens are a deeply bonded package deal who do absolutely everything together! Curly is an absolute dream of a kitten. He is incredibly outgoing, super friendly, and believes the human hand was invented solely to give him affection. The second you start petting him, his little motor starts running and doesn't stop! Mo is just as lovely, sweet, and people-oriented as his brother. He loves a good cuddle session and is a total champ at petting time. He relies on his buddy Curly for confidence, and together, they form a fearless team of lovebugs. This duo is simply a joy to be around — they are super friendly, love attention, and purr up a storm the moment you walk in.July 12, 2026, 10:09 pm

Story
I am at Oakland Animal Services in kennel Visiting Room:3Shitake and Shroom are bonded brothers, both around a year old, who come as a matched set of brown-and-white tabbies with complementary personalities. Shitake is the outgoing one — affectionate and eager for attention, leaning hard into pets and purring loudly the moment you say hello. Shroom is the more reserved brother, shy and slower to trust, but he draws a lot of confidence from having Shitake around and has been steadily coming out of his shell; treats and patience go a long way with him. Both can get a little overstimulated, so they'll do best in a quiet, calm home with cat-savvy adopters who can read their cues and let things unfold at the brothers' pace. Give these two the time and the right environment, and they'll reward you with plenty of affection, playful energy, and the easy comfort of a pair who've always had each other.  July 12, 2026, 10:09 pm
