About Dora and Derry

Dora and Derry are a delightful bonded pair of 5-month-old female calico cats eager to explore their new homes. Dora, the curious adventurer, has a knack for discovering every nook and cranny in her surroundings. Whether investigating what's in the basement or the contents of the cupboards, she brings a sense of wonder wherever she goes. This affectionate snuggler loves to curl up and purr, especially after a long day of exploring. Just a heads-up: she adores plants and might try to chew on them, so it’s best to have pet-safe varieties around. Derry, affectionately known as Newbie, is her playful counterpart, full of energy and charm. She thrives on playtime, climbing the cat tree and enjoying the zoomies when toys come out. After her energetic escapades, she loves cozying up for a cuddle, often wanting to be held up high to see the world from your shoulder. Both sisters share a vibrant curiosity about their environment and are sure to fill your home with laughter and love. Adopting Dora and Derry means having twice the fun and love in your home. They can’t wait to meet you. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
