Story
Looking for the perfect companion to snuggle up to at bedtime? Or a plus one for your trip to the bathroom? If so, Kahvi is your guy! He feels most at home sitting in someone’s lap, content to just spend time with you (though he does love spring toys if you have any to spare). Kahvi is a little over 2 years old, and was found wandering the streets with some allergy issues. He is currently being treated for this, and he’s already grown most of his glossy hair back! Since becoming an indoor cat, we have discovered that he does not like to share the spotlight and does not do well in environments with other cats, but would adore having his very own human (or humans!) to call his own.

Story
Meena is known to be about 1 1/2 years old. Has grown up with an adult cat and does well with her. Loves to play, with lasers and rolled up sticky notes are her favorite. Very needy and attention seeking. Would probably do best in a house with children or older children who can give her the play time she needs. Loves being pet and patted. High energy.
