Ember and Sable are Bonded Buddies; they'll be adopted as a pair

- Sweet girl who is figuring out that being petted feels pretty good and humans are OK; once she feels comfortable, she starts purring as soon as you touch her

- Arrived at the ARL undersocialized and has made great progress in a foster home; looking for a patient family who will give her time to settle in and help her continue to gain confidence

- Likes fluffy balls and playing with her sister

- Occasionally will get a little startled by sudden movements, but she has come a long way in her foster home and now it isn't always her first instinct to dart away

- Would do well with a vertical scratching post
