Peaches and Avocado are a sweet mom and daughter pair looking for their furever home together.
They do know their names but it's questionable if they will respond to them!
Peaches loves cuddling beside her humans on the couch and at night. She may lightly scratch the couch or bed a couple of times to get your attention, usually to make space for her to hop up.
Avocado loves to sit on her human's lap and get very specific pets or to just sit and vibe without pets. At night Avocado loves a tall perch, preferably by a window. Avocado loves her wet food and crying for it is the only time she tries to scream. She will sometimes wreak a little havoc if you don't wake up when she's ready. A set of blinds once fell prey to her morning demands for attention.
The girls sometimes like toys, usually ribbons. Avocado also likes some very small animal shaped toys that she can pick up and throw around with her teeth.
They are really well behaved for the most part. They don't jump on the counters. Usually, they only scratch on designated scratch pads and posts.
Peaches and Avocado will need adopters who are willing to be patient and give them time and space to settle in. They are easily spooked and scared of new things, but once they know they're safe they really start to open up.
Peaches and Avocado are both FIV positive and have had some health issues. We can share specifics with potential adopters. They live in a foster home so meetings would take place there.
