Della

I'm Della, and I'm friendly and fun! I'm about 6 years old, but I'm so active and playful that my foster mom thought I was much younger. I am also a snuggle bug and will lay on you for petting; my cheeks especially! I was adopted from another shelter by my previous owner about a year ago, but they couldn't keep me, so I need a new family again -- this time forever.

Romeo & Juliette

I'm Juliette (Jules for short) - the bee-you-tea-ful torite, and unlike many torties, I am sweet and adorable. The handsome tiger is my brother Romeo. That's right, we're siblings and.our foster mom gave us these names to show how bonded we are. We just turned 2 years old, and we still share the cat tree, and cuddle together on the bed. Also, I confess, I often still wash my brother's head - I want him to look his best when our new people are looking for us.

Bella

My name is Bella. I am estimated to be 1 year old and weigh about 10 lbs. The best word to describe me is energetic! Once upon a time I had a home and a family but my family fell on hard times and we ended up homeless. My people found a shelter where they could stay but unfortunately the shelter could not take in a little dog. When I first got to my foster home, I was very scared and distrustful.
