Twix

Skittle

Twix and her sister Skittle were surrendered to us after their owner could no longer provide for their care. After being confined to one room in their previous home, they are long overdue for an extended cuddle session.

Though she does not seek out affection, Twix loves to be pet and will roll all around to make sure all parts of her body are pet evenly. We believe Twix would do best in a quieter home as an only pet or with other cats. We think Twix would do fine with children but she is a shy girl at first and would need some quiet decompression time in her new home. If you are looking for a friend to cuddle with you on the couch, Twix may just be your gal!

Being the more social sister of the two, Skittle enjoys staring at you until you finally pet her. In between her cuddles you can find her tucking herself into blankets for a long winter nap. We believe Skittle would do well in any home,  although she has not been dog tested yet, she is a very brave girl who likes to befriend everyone.
