Mittens & Crumb are a remarkable duo looking for their forever home in Mokena, IL. Mittens, nearly 2 years old, has come a long way, overcoming his initial struggles to find comfort in human kindness. Although he's still working on trusting physical touch, he adores chin scratches and has blossomed with the support of his best friend, Crumb. This pair is inseparable and needs to be adopted together. Crumb, the affectionate 8-year-old, is a joy despite his past of being neglected. His FIV positive status doesn’t hold him back; he’s friendly with all and loves to play, though he enjoys some roughhouse fun. Crumb requires a little extra care, including daily warm face washes and a lysine supplement to keep him healthy. Both boys are house trained, and with their love for wet food, they are easy to please. They need a calm, patient home, ideally without kids or dogs. If you have a gentle heart for these underdogs, consider bringing Mittens & Crumb into your life. They’ve faced challenges, but they have so much love to give. Ready to fall in love?
