About Raider

Raider is one half of a closely bonded sister duo—her companion Angel Pie is also looking for a home with her. Both are American Shorthairs with short coats and were bottle-fed as kittens, which makes them especially affectionate and people-focused. These two are calm, friendly, and easy to handle. Raider especially enjoys being picked up and will melt in your arms for attention. They are inseparable, often found curled up together for naps. Raider and her sister have always been indoor-only, are fully litter trained, spayed, flea-free, and considered to be in great health. Their experience living with children, dogs, and other cats has made them adaptable and well-socialized. The pair hopes to find a loving family who will welcome both of them together, ready to share double the affection and purring companionship. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
