Story
Meet Eclipse and Starlight: A Cosmic Pair of Beautiful Black Kittens! Are you ready to open your heart and home to a pair of out-of-this-world sisters? Eclipse and Starlight are looking for their forever home together, where they can continue to grow and thrive. Eclipse: The Cuddle Queen Eclipse is the social butterfly of the pair. She loves human company and will often seek out your lap for cuddles while you work or relax. If you're lucky enough to share a nap with these sisters, you'll find Eclipse snuggled on your chest, giving sweet nuzzling kisses with her little wet nose. Her affectionate nature makes her the perfect companion for those who love a cuddly cat. Starlight: The Playful Shy Girl Starlight is more reserved and takes her time warming up to new people. She's not a fan of being touched or petted and may run and hide when faced with unfamiliar faces. But don't let that deter you-Starlight has a playful side that shines brightly when "Da Bird toy comes out. She'll leap, pounce, and perform all sorts of acrobatics to catch that elusive feather, showing off her playful and spirited side. Their Ideal Home These sisters are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. They've been well socialized in their foster home and have developed a love for their nightly can of wet food. Eclipse and Starlight would thrive in a calm home, perhaps with older children or adults who understand Starlight's need for patience and space. While Eclipse is more tolerant of being held, Starlight prefers to keep her distance-except when it's time to play! Why Adopt Eclipse and Starlight? By adopting these two together, you'll get the best of both worlds: a cuddly lap cat and a playful, independent spirit. They'll bring double the love, joy, and companionship to your home, along with the deep satisfaction of knowing you've given these stellar sisters the chance to stay together and grow in a loving environment. If this sounds like the perfect fit for your family, come meet Eclipse and Starlight today! They can't wait to find a forever home where they can continue to shine.

Story
Link is 5 years old and I have had him since he was a kitten. He is one of the sweetest cats you will ever meet. He is not shy around strangers and will go right up to you and sit on your lap if you let him. If you feel like cuddling, just call him over and he will happily sit on your lap! He is very affectionate as well as very energetic! He loves being pet and chasing toys. He loves doing "cat-acro" where I put him on my feet and he hangs out in the air! I am rehoming him only because I am about to be traveling full-time and unfortunately just won't be able to care for him.

Story
Marley is a short haired American tuxedo cat. He's a very sweet cat, he enjoys playing or just laying around on the couch with you while you watch tv. He's not very big on being held but does love being rubbed. Marley is definitely an indoor cat, if he gets outside he is gone. Him and his brother both have no experience outdoors. His brother's name is Junior. Marley is good with other pets, but a little bit xxxx@xxxx.x is not a very demanding cat, it's a very relaxed cat likes to look out windows or the door and take naps. 50% of the time you won't even know he's around because he will be sleeping under a couch or heading away somewhere napping. Marley has a brother, Jr. Please consider adopting both, they have both been together since they were very small(less than 2 months old). I would prefer them to not be separated.
