Fettucini and Ziti are adorable 3 month old bonded sisters. Ziti is a cute as a button torbie with a orange dot right in the middle of her forehead. Fettucini is a gray tabby with TWENTY FIVE toes! You read that right. She was clearly going for a world record but is sadly 2 toes short. Nonetheless her toebeans are precious. The girls are up to date on vaccines, dewormed, spayed, and tested negative for FIV/FeLV. They are outgoing and love to have fun - climbing, jumping, and wrestling are some favorites. They love people and have the best purrs! Since they are bonded, they must be adopted as a pair. If interested, please text (828) 289-6673.
