In the shelter’s words
Byrdie and Mickle are a pair of bonded cats, much like brothers. Both cats are easy-going and love humans. They have just the right amount of playfulness and calmness. Mickle and Byrdie are good with other cats, cat-friendly dogs, and respectful, cat-savvy children. Their home shouldn’t be too busy, but these cats would fit in almost anywhere. Byrdie is 3 years old and he loves to play with wand toys, to sit high on the cat tree, and to sit with his humans. He talks and chirps like a bird and likes a bit of adventure. He takes care of his big “brother“ Mickle, staying by his side and grooming him often. He will cuddle next to you and like his "brother" will give gentle kisses. Mickle is 7 years old and is very calm and easy to work with. He loves to be near his person and will give gentle kisses and roll over onto his back. He is a really special, sweet boy. He has recently been diagnosed with asthma, but he takes his current medication like a champ. Really, he is amazing! He will need to use an inhaler for asthmatic episodes, but he will do great. What could be better than adopting a pair of cats who love each other and get along so well? There is nothing better! Inquire about Mickle and Byrdie today! Byrdie & Mickle are micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, neutered, and litter box trained. Byrdie & Mickle's combined adoption fee is $270 ($135x2). If you are interested in meeting Byrdie & Mickle, please fill out our Online Application today! Once your application has been approved, an ARF volunteer will be able to contact you to arrange a meeting.
