Heidi and Ivy

Heidi and Ivy are a pair of bonded 4 year old cats

They were fully vaccinated, and spayed as kittens and have been healthy their whole lives.

About Ivy (Brown Tabby), 8LBs

Ivy is our gentle, soft-hearted cat. She spends most of her day loafing around, relaxing, and quietly following you from room to room. If you lie down anywhere, she’ll immediately come over to sit next to you and rub against you.

She used to be timid as a kitten but has become confident and friendly with strangers. She’s incredibly tolerant with children — tail pulling, face poking, all the toddler chaos — and she has never hissed or acted aggressive. When you meet Ivy for the first time she will be timid, but will warm up within a few minutes.

About Heidi (Gray, White Tabby), 12LBs

Heidi is the bigger one and has the alpha personality. She’s fearless, expressive, smart, and hilarious. She “fights” the blow dryer and vacuum like she’s defending the home. She’s also super food-motivated, curious, playful, and very social. When you meet Heidi for the first time, she will run up to you and sniff you. She is not timid at all.

She loves cuddling, sleeping on you, blankets, jackets — literally anything soft. She enjoys sitting on a porch but doesn’t wander. She’s affectionate, funny, and full of personality.

In their free time, you can find them loafing around, playing with each other, running on the cat wheel, and following you around the house.

For months, Heidi and Ivy slept outside our bedroom door every night until we eventually blocked off upstairs.
