Buttons and Spooky are a bonded pair of sweet senior cats looking for a loving home together. These two have spent years side by side and rely on each other for comfort, companionship, and plenty of cozy moments.

Buttons is as affectionate as they come—she truly lives up to her name with her gentle, lovable personality. She adores people and always wants to be close, whether that means curling up beside you or resting on your lap. She’s incredibly healthy for a senior and still enjoys playtime like a much younger cat. She can be a bit grumpy with other cats, preferring human attention, and absolutely loves cuddles, catnip, and giving little kisses.

Hi, I’m Buttons! I may be a senior, but I still have plenty of energy and love to share. You’ll usually find me right next to your legs, keeping you company. I’m a big fan of snuggles and affection—and I’ll happily remind you with kisses.

Spooky is just as loving, with a slightly clingy side that makes her all the more endearing. She thrives on being close to her people and will happily tuck herself under the covers for warm, nighttime cuddles. She still enjoys playing with both people and other cats and has a sweet, social personality. Spooky is a bit on the thin side and would benefit from gaining some weight, and she occasionally has trouble keeping food down, but otherwise she’s doing well.

Hi, I’m Spooky! I love being right in the middle of whatever you’re doing—I’m a bit of a “helper” that way. I’ll definitely insist on bedtime snuggles, especially under the covers. And if you pet me, don’t be surprised if I meow every single time—it’s just my way of saying I love the attention!
