Story
Wynona is shy at first -- she is extremely sweet when she is comfortable, but give her a few days and she will be ready for some human attention. She loves chin scratches and just to be near her human. She gets along with other non-dominant cats and will just mind her own business -- she does not do well with cats who will bully her. Wynona is quick to seek out human company when comfortable. While she does get along with other cats, proper acclimation is extremely important in the process of adjusting to a new home and other cats. Wynona has a $100 adoption fee. All cats adopted through our rescue are age appropriately vaccinated including rabies & FVRCP/Feline Leukemia vaccines, dewormed & free of fleas, combo tested (negative unless otherwise noted), microchipped and spayed/neutered before adoptions are finalized. If you would like to adopt, please fill out the application through the link or the website at -www.whiskersofohio.org - please note that the "I'm interested" tab on Petfinder does NOT act as an application, this should only be used for specific questions before committing to an adoption. You will receive an email confirmation when your application goes through. We make no breed guarantees, we are a rescue, not a breeder. Please only apply for a specific kitten if you are committed to adopting! Our workers are all volunteers and it takes time to process applications. We are a registered 501c3 non-profit organization, with ZERO paid workers or admins. Free transport is regularly available to Wayne/Holmes County areas! We do have the ability to fly a cat or pair of kittens via Southwest's SWATT program to any location served by Southwest Airlines. It isn't free but has been a great way to transport animals in a timely manner.

Story
Nix and Lilith are tortoiseshell sisters. (Nix has short hair, Lilith has medium long). They are very sweet and affectionate and love to play. We've never had issues with them clawing or biting at people, they were playful with our dog without being overwhelmed, and they spend most of their time together. They've never been around children but they are energetic and cuddly, so I can't imagine them disliking toddlers and older. They were left with us by a friend who lost his home and was keeping them in a cage in his car. We took them on temporarily, but have since lost contact with previous owner and are unable to bring them with us as we move out of our rental home. We would like to rehome them together, as they have never been apart. Unfortunately they do not get along well with our cats and can get territorial over food locations. They may do best in a home where they are the only cats.
