About Nettie & Maxwell

Nettie and Maxwell are bonded siblings rescued from Houston, where they were picked up by animal control. They rely on each other greatly; while Maxwell tends to be shy, Nettie is the more outgoing of the two. Their affectionate nature shines through, especially towards their foster mom, who adores them. They enjoy playing with stuffies and share beautifully with their foster dog siblings, all while being gentle with the four resident cats and a special needs toddler in their home. These two are crate-trained, potty-trained, and sociable, but they can be skittish at first, requiring a patient owner to help them adjust. A kind, supportive atmosphere is vital, ideally with someone who works from home. They're approximately 2 years old and currently weigh about 30 lbs each. Both are fixed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. A fenced yard is mandatory for them to roam and play safely. If you’re looking for a loving pair to adopt, look no further.
