Story
*Meow* I`m in a foster home! Email my foster caregiver to meet me: Leannedanielson@yahoo.com*** Kittens benefit from the companionship of each other. ****** Adopt one and receive a discounted rate for the second when adopted in pairs! ***Tootsie is a sweet little girl who really wants love and to give love but is super shy.  She comes out of her shell with a bit playtime.  She will need a patient family that will give her time to feel safe in her new home.  She uses the litterbox well and she is good with other cats.  She has a tabby brother named Mr. Tambourine Man (aka Bo) who is a sweet and confident little boy and they would love to go home together!

Story
Phoenix was a stray in my neighborhood who took to me and is the most loving little fur baby. He's super sweet and silly. I tried to take care of him, but my work keeps me away from home and it breaks my heart to leave him alone and I think he deserves better.
