About Olive and Pumpkin

Meet Olive and Pumpkin, a dynamic duo of Domestic Short Hair sisters marking their territory in Amherst, MA. Almost two years old and one year old, respectively, they share striking tabby appearances and lively yet affectionate personalities. Olive dons a beautiful brown tabby coat, while Pumpkin showcases charming tabby markings with white. Though not biologically related, their bond is palpable as they play, cuddle, and sometimes engage in a little sisterly sass. Their enthusiastic spirits bring a burst of energy; they love interactive play with wand toys and are always ready for a good exploring session. Especially fond of spring toys, Pumpkin is the queen of zoomies, while Olive, being delightfully vocal and incredibly clever, views household puzzles as her playground. Be ready for some nighttime adventures, as their zoomies might include racing through bedrooms when they feel particularly playful. While they snooze through much of the day, these affectionate sisters are also eager for attention and treats from anyone willing to share space with them. It's worth noting that Olive has had a minor mishap with a toddler, so a household without very young children would best suit them. Their interactions with dogs and other cats haven’t been tested yet. Both are spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations, ensuring they are ready for their forever home. Most importantly, this bonded pair must be adopted together to thrive. If you’re ready for double the affection, intelligence, and playful antics, Olive and Pumpkin could be the perfect addition to your family!
