2 kittens for adoption
My absolutely lovely foster kittens are ready to be adopted as a pair, and I want to help find the home they deserve.
12-week-old Liza (tuxedo) and Senka (all black) are a bonded pair–sisters and best friends. They are quite clever (already showing signs of knowing their names, and have learned some of my tricks), social (they get along well with my cat), and affectionate (when they’re not doing their kitten play, they love a good snuggle–you should hear them purr!).
For some reason this website wasn’t letting me upload the photos, so I’ve posted them in a google drive folder here:
