About Ash

Click apply to start the adoption process. Gus and Ash are two charming, bonded brothers in search of a loving and peaceful home. At 7 years old, these handsome gentlemen have weathered life changes together and are now inseparable best friends. Deeply affectionate, they both adore lap time—whether it is watching your favorite show or simply relaxing in each other's company. Gus, a long-haired brown tabby (freshly groomed for summer!), is a little bashful at first but quickly warms up to show his sweet, affectionate side. His specialty? Soft head butts and quiet requests for love. Ash, a short-haired gray tabby, is the outgoing conversationalist of the pair. He's always ready to tell you about his day, show off his birdwatching prowess, and let you know when it’s time for dinner. Both boys are mellow, low-key, and thrive in a serene, low-activity environment. They are wonderful with cat-friendly kids and other friendly cats, making them a perfect choice for families looking to add affectionate and loyal companions. Both are neutered, microchipped with lifetime registration, and up-to-date on all vaccines. If you dream of a pair of devoted companions to keep you company and share in each day's little moments, Gus and Ash are waiting to meet you. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
