In the shelter’s words

Meow meet Abbott! He is a handsome two year old boy whose story is filled with love, loss, and a whole lot of heart! Abbott and his brother, Costello, were adopted as young kittens and were loved beyond measure. They had a wonderful home and a couple who adored them. When their dad suddenly passed away, the boys and their mom had to navigate a heartbreaking loss together. They comforted one another and continued on as a family. Sadly, their mom recently passed away too, and now Abbott and Costello have found themselves at the rescue, trying to understand how their whole world changed so quickly. It would be understandable if Abbott had become withdrawn, instead, his sweet, loving, gentle personality is still very much there. Abbott loves being loved! He enjoys being held, petted, and is extremely playful. Through all of the changes in their lives, Abbott and Costello have remained a source of comfort for one another. They may be content to spend some time apart, but their bond is clear, and we feel they would benefit from continuing their journey together. Abbott has already lost so much, but he hasn’t lost his ability to love. We hope his next chapter with his brother Costello - is a chapter filled with gentle hands, cozy naps, playful moments, and a family who will cherish these two boys for all the years ahead. Abbott deserves to feel safe and loved again, with his brother by his side.
