ADOPT BLACK CATS! Brink & Coalby are only 2 of many that we have at the moment! These boys came in together, but don't need to be adopted together BUT we always offer 2-for-1 adoption fees on cats. Two little shadows wandering the house? Yes, please!

Brink, 9 m/o: He's got the cutiest mouse face! He's super friendly with the tiniest little meow. He adores pets, but not necessarily being held! He's shy, but still adores attention - not sure how that works, but he combines the two!! He loves being around feline friends! Dogs? Hard to say -- he's shy, yes, but maybe he wouldn't mind? We think kids would be fine!

Coalby, ~3 y/o: He's got the saltier look on his face, but don't be fooled. Coalby is super sweet with a sassy side as well. He's a calm and confident kitty who likely WOULD get along with pups. He's curious and immediately went to check out the new ball pit we put up for them in their room, and of course, Brink had to follow.

Come check out these boys in our Cat Adoption Room, but yes, they do have their own room shared with tortie lady, Luxa, as well!
