Today’s theme is Cats That Have Been Here Too Long.
The cute couple below have been together all of their
lives and sadly, their owner passed away. They are petite
gentle and affectionate and check on each other a lot
with soft head butts, jewel and Tony are about ten years
old, but in perfect health. They are quiet but love affec
tion. Tony even likes bejjyrubs and will let you pet him
for as long as you like.
I
Miss Amy has also Been Here Too
Long, probably due to her age-10
years young with lots of life and love
to give. She is a fluffy marshmallow of
a girl, and she loves to be lazy. Want
to snuggle on the couch and catch
something on Netflix? She’s your girl.
She adores attention and loves to be
in your lap. She’s got a long, pretty
aubum/black coat and demure man
ners. Would like to be an onfy kitty.
