Story
Ankho and Bagheera are brothers with a really close bond. They are both half Maine Coon and almost 4 years old. They were born outside as feral cats and we took them in when they were around 5 months old. They are house cats now and have never been outside, but due to their feral start the behavior they developed is very pack-minded - they don't get along with other cats or dogs, which is why we are choosing to rehome them. Ankho is the brown tabby. He is the curious one with a lot of energy. He is also a lap cat who loves cuddles, belly rubs and doesn't mind being picked up. Ankho does have asthma and requires an inhaler when his asthma flares, albeit rarely. Bagheera is the black one. He is a lot more relaxed and timid. He loves cuddling, but only on his own terms. He spends most of his time napping in the sun and loves looking out the window. You must take both of them. They are brothers and we do not want to split them up.

Story
Tetra is 7 months old. Named after the video game character in Zelda, meaning femal pirate. She is extremely playful and very affectionate. She is very social with humans and other animals. She can amuse herself independently or loves to be played with. Healthy alert and acrobatic. Up to date on all shots and microchipped. Unfortunately our pit bull mix plays too rough and we feel she would be happier and safer in another loving home.
