About Simba

Meet Simba, a loving and confident cat who recently came to us with his brother, Oreo. These boys are wonderfully bonded and are looking for a new family after their previous one faced allergies. Simba is the more outgoing of the duo, eagerly meeting new people and requesting attention. He thrives on cuddles and playtime, making him a delightful companion. This playful spirit is complemented by Oreo, who tends to be a bit more reserved. While Oreo can be shy, especially around loud noises, he also enjoys affection and will gladly cuddle when he feels safe. To help Simba and Oreo adjust to their new environment, creating spaces for climbing and perching will boost their confidence. Puzzles and slow feeders are great for keeping them busy and managing mealtime habits—Oreo can be quite the food enthusiast! These cats share a strong bond, often grooming each other, sleeping together, and loving a good brushing from their humans. While they haven't interacted with other cats, Simba and Oreo have had stressful encounters with high-energy dogs and prefer a calm home. They have done well with children in the past, although Oreo appreciates a more predictable routine. Ready to welcome Simba and Oreo into your heart? Visit our Adoption Center today!
