Story
TATUM and TOBIAS are two beautiful Turkish Van kitties who started out very shy, nervous kitties pulled from a FERAL colony TNR location. They aren't fans of a busy environment so they will take TIME to open up in a new home. They would love a calm, quiet adult home in which to relax and blossom. Sharing is Caring of these two sweet brothers... Help find their pot of gold. 💜 WOW cats are fully vetted to age with a lifetime microchip.

Story
Meet VALENTINO - he is a sweet, but shy boy, who came to us after he was found dangling upside down caught up in a fence. VAENTINO is a little reserved with his love and slower to warm up but it's worth the wait! His BEST Friend is fellow tripod buddy, ARISTOTLE. This poor muffin was luckily picked up by a Good Samaritan in the storm after escaping some kind of attack and sadly had to lose his leg. He is a CUDDLE BUG who craves human attention. He's so incredibly sweet and loving. if you are looking for two handsome boys to fill your heart with love they would LOVE a home TOGETHER.
