Story
Butternoodles had Cleo when she was about 4 months old last year, so they are both still young. They look just like each other (Cleo is a little rounder), and have been best friends since they first met. They come together as a pair. They are very laid back and relaxed, but also love to play with ribbons and toys. They grew up in a loving, calm and peaceful house. With their perfect stripes and long whiskers, they will make a lucky cat lover very happy.

Story
Born on the streets of Missouri, this kitty has some territorial issues with other cats and trouble with eating his food too fast. Other than this, he's the perfect cuddle buddy and play partner. A sassy cat, he'll let you know what he wants with his meows and purrs. Admittedly, I've spoiled this boy when it comes to attention, perhaps to make up for my lack of funds to afford medical expenses. He's not up to date on his adult shots and has a problem with excess itching in his ears. These are small expenses I'm sure, though in the middle of saving for a big move I haven't been able to take care of him the way he needs. He is a sweetheart, offering comfort in times of distress and I'll be sad to have to leave him behind. The place I'm moving to does not allow pets, it'll break my heart to leave him behind, though, I'll feel a bit better knowing he's going to a loving home with someone more equipped to give him the care he requires.
