About Zack

Click apply to start the adoption process. Zack (white and grey) and Roxy (grey) are an inseparable pair, both born on June 10, 2021, and raised together since they were 7 weeks old. Their personalities complement each other perfectly: Zack is the reserved sweetheart who blossoms into an affectionate cuddle-bug once he’s comfortable. He can’t resist belly rubs, butt pats, or a good flop on a rug to soak up your love. Playful and endearing, Zack is the king of catnip kicker toys and morning vocal reminders for breakfast. He has a soft spot for chicken snacks, enjoys burrowing under blankets, and will follow you into the bathroom for a cozy belly rub ritual. Roxy, smaller and outgoing, is a chatty cuddle enthusiast who loves following her person from room to room. She lives for zoomies, playing fetch with hair ties, and being your irresistible shadow. She’s playful with her food, often "hunting" treats you toss her way, and snuggles right in if offered the chance to nap with you. Roxy’s favorite spot is any sunbeam or atop a tall cat tower for window watching, and she’ll happily keep you company, purring and seeking gentle head caresses. Both Zack and Roxy thrive on affection, enjoy playful cat tunnels, heated blankets, and love each other deeply—often swapping spots by smothering each other with love. They are a famously gentle duo who have never hissed or bitten and handle monthly baths well (albeit vocally). Both are fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and indoor-only, seeking a forever home where their devoted, calm personalities will be cherished. Did you know? With a birthday of July 2, Zack and Roxy are Cancers, known for their sweet, nurturing, and sensitive natures. Your new best friend is just one click away.
