Story
DOB - 3/14/2026 Squirrel and Maggie Jane were found in a parking lot at 2 weeks old without their mom. They were bottle fed and handled with care from a very early age. Because of this, they are very friendly and love everyone. They have developed the sweetest personalities and purr loudly when cuddled. MJ is very sweet and loves attention. She even likes to be held on her back like a baby. Squirrel is very sweet but can sometimes be a little spicy as well. He loves to wrestle with his sister and play with toys. He also loves cuddles and treats. They have been raised around 2 other cats and a small dog. Both would make a great addition to a loving home. ##2748175##

Story
Hi, I’m Rockstar —don’t let the name fool you, I’m more acoustic set than stadium tour. I’m still working on my shyness, but once I feel safe, I absolutely love to be petted. Soft scratches? Encore. Gentle attention? Standing ovation. I just need a little time to warm up before the show starts. I’m a big fan of the quiet, calm lifestyle—think cozy evenings, low noise, and plenty of peaceful cuddle breaks. No wild after-parties for me. I’m more into slow jams and steady love. If you’re patient, kind, and appreciate a mellow vibe, I promise I’ll be your favorite Rockstar. Same name, zero drama, all heart.
