why adopting more than one cat at the same time can be important

We first heard of little Danï and Zoë through Love Meow. When we sent an inquiry to Dani Giroux of The Runaways Animal Rescue, she advised that they needed to be adopted together. We’d heard similar stories of how some kittens and older cats needed to be  adopted together. We’d even gone so far to adopt Beau and Luke together in 2015, not so much because the boys needed it, but because they were the only two male Gingers out of their litter and no-one at the time would step forward for them.

Big Dani was right. The little ones turned two years old back on St. Patrick’s day, so they’re well past kittenhood. But they are still as tightly bonded as the day we first brought them home as little kittens. They eat together out of the same bowl, they play together, and given a chance, they sleep together, usually every mid-day after their second meal. Most importantly they’re happy and thriving together.

I’ve never known two cats more tightly bonded than these two, not even the two older male Gingers.
