Story
MowMow is a sweet girl. She found me at an apartment complex. She is an excellent indoor cat but does enjoy being outside. It breaks my heart to rehome her but my job is now requiring a great deal of traveling. She is a bit overweight and needs someone to help her lose weight. She does require a little help with grooming. She loves being loved on and played with. She is not aggressive at all. She has never destroyed anything in house and uses litter box consistently. I pray she will find a good home with someone to give her attention that she deserves

Story
If your heart melts for quiet souls with deep, thoughtful eyes and a gentle spirit, let us introduce you to Ramsey — a soft, introverted sweetheart who speaks in whispers rather than shouts. This handsome orange boy may not rush into your lap, but once he decides you’re safe, his affection is tender, sincere, and absolutely priceless. Ramsey is the quieter half of a perfect bonded pair. He’s observant and thoughtful, taking in the world from a cozy spot where he can watch everything unfold. He warms up slowly, but when he does, you’ll be rewarded with the sweetest signs of trust: soft blinks from across the room, choosing to nap near you, or settling close by just to share your space. His love is gentle and steady — the kind that grows roots. And while Ramsey is the introspective one, he’s never alone. His twin brother, Simba, is his sunshine — the confident, affectionate cuddlebug who helps Ramsey feel brave. These boys were rescued together from a local feral colony as very young kittens, and thanks to the loving care of their rescuer and the kind folks at IAR, they’ve transformed into happy, comfortable indoor housecats who rely on each other in the sweetest ways. Simba gives Ramsey the courage to explore; Ramsey gives Simba the calm anchor he adores. They nap curled up together, groom each other, and share a bond that’s unshakeable. They are truly two halves of one heart. Ramsey and Simba will thrive in a peaceful, patient home with humans who understand and appreciate both tender quietness and playful affection. Ramsey will blossom for someone who lets him move at his own pace, and once he does, you’ll discover the softest love imaginable. Simba, of course, will happily provide nonstop snuggles, purrs, and comic relief. 💕 If you’re looking for… ✔ A sweet, sensitive introvert who will love you in his own gentle way (Ramsey!) ✔ An affectionate, confident orange cuddlebug (Simba!) ✔ A perfectly balanced bonded pair who complete each other ✔ Double the love, double the charm, double the orange floof …then Ramsey & Simba may be your perfect match. Ready to meet these two special boys? Tap “apply to adopt,” and their foster parents will be in touch to arrange a meet & greet if it seems like a good fit!
