These two cats’ combined age is just about a half of a century. The boy kitty with white fur is 24 and the gray one is 21. They were surrendered by their owner to the shelter and their future looked uncertain until someone special came to their rescue and gave them something they so deserve…a new forever home together so they would not be separated.
“They were surrendered to the shelter, no reason given. I’m told that the owner was young, gave vet records to show the age of the cats, and didn’t give them names,” Karyn Poplin of Kitty Adventure Rescue League told the people of Love Meow.
“The cheeks on this 21 year old cat we took in are just ripe for poking.”
Senior cats rarely end up in good homes when they are surrendered to the shelter. “We pulled them from the shelter. That means, they generally don’t do much past giving FVRCP and rabies as rescues generally cover the rest of the vetting if needed. We plan on at minimum a general followup with our own vet,” Poplin added.
They also brought the cats to the kitty sanctuary located at Kitty Adventure Rescue League, so that they can have a permanent home.
“The girl, the bigger one, really likes cuddling in bed with people. The boy enjoys jumping in windows and screaming for attention.
Both are gigantic, overweight love bugs.”
The two kitties are now spending their final years in a place they call their forever home!
