Story
S’mores and Libby were found together and they will stay together. They have been by each other’s sides since they lived under a trailer. They’re always playing and loving on each other and they both love each other very much. S’mores is the domestic shorthair tortie. She’s a chatter box. Once you start talking to her she gonna yap right back. She loves compliments and attention. Her favorite thing is treats. She’s the more social out of the two. Libby is that but the opposite. She’s the bi color tabby American shorthair (?), she’s very skittish and shy and needs a lot of affection. Once you start petting her she won’t let you stop. It takes a while go her to warm up to you but once she realizes your the one feeding her and cleaning her poo she’s all over you. Give them an equal amount of attention and they’ll fall in love with you I promise.

Story
I found both Bean (male orange) and Marcus (female striped) when they were both a few weeks old. Bean was found in a tree (cliche) crying in December 2023 and Marcus just came up to my door yelling one day. I kept both of them and nursed them back to health. But now in 2025, I am starting to have my own health struggles. I can’t take care of them the way that I used to. And I’m not in an ideal position financially either. I think they deserve a better home than what I can give them right now and a much better pet parent than I can be.
