Cheeto & Cheets #bonded-pair

DOB 5/31/25 (Cheeto), 5/17/25 (Cheets)

Hey there, everyone! We're Cheeto and Cheets, a bonded pair of look-alike red tuxedo-tabby kittens who are not related. Thank heavens Foster Meowmy rescued both of us as orphaned kittens with no momma or siblings in sight. Gosh! We look so much alike that you would think we are siblings except Cheets is noticeably larger than petite Cheeto, who is two weeks younger and a girl. We have a blast tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling with each other, and when we're exhausted, we collapse in a kitten puddle.

Our favorite part of the day is interactive playtime when Foster Meowmy waves the wand toy over my head or snakes it around the room for us to chase. During our solitary moments, we enjoy watching "kitty TV" by basking in a patch of sunshine on the windowsill while we observe the birds fly by outside. With no dogs, kids, or other adults, the quiet peace of our foster home suits us to a "T."

Cheeto says, "I am an adorable red tuxedo-tabby Manx mix gal, which means that I have a half-inch stubby tail and four white mittens and vest. What's funny is that my stub looks like a Cheeto sprouting where my tail should be! I was about seven weeks when Foster Meowmy noticed me hiding under someone's car in her apartment complex. I was terrified and thought that all hoomans were scary monsters like the rest of the outdoor stray animals I'd been fending off. I figured that the best defense was a good offense, so when she first took me home, I played the nonaggressive -but tough little cookie who growled whenever I felt threatened.

Now that I've adjusted to life indoors, I'm slowly learning that it feels good when Foster Meowmy scratches my cheeks, chin, and ears. Who knows, but right now it looks like sacrificing my independence may be worth those luxurious, tranquilizing pets. Perhaps, with time and patience, my melting into the safety of her arms is on the horizon. After a slow introduction, I also now enjoy playing with the three resident cats."

Cheets says, "I'm a friendly, affectionate, and snuggly "bicolor" fella, which means that I'm mostly white with red tabby on my head, "saddleback," and tail. I adore spending quality time cuddling in Foster Meowmy's lap because that's where I can turn on my purr motor as well as chat with her about how our day is going.

I was about two months old when I started showing up at Foster Meowmy's community-cat feeding station behind a strip club. I'm very food-motivated, so all it took was her serving wet food to convince me that I could trust her. When she first took me home, I was initially shy as I adjusted to life indoors. I'm happy to report that it didn't take me long to learn that it felt soooooooo good when Foster Meowmy scratched my cheeks, chin, and ears. One thing led to another, and voila, I was soon a very vocal, loving lap cat! I'm also super-friendly with the three resident cats, although it hurts my feelings that they don't respond to my amiable overtures."

Now we're ready to bring our twin red-tabby frenzy to entertain our new family. Could that be you? We think it'd be the cat's meow if we were adopted together so we could be playmates and cuddle buddies while you're at work or on vacation. Arrange to meet us today!
