Happily Homed: Cleo and Phoenix

Amanda Huggett

We have an #adoptionupdate from Bruce, who adopted bonded pair Cleo and Phoenix (formerly known as Cleopatrick) last October. This kitten duo was only at the shelter for about a month and were treated for ringworm before finding their new home.

Bruce says he saw the two online and immediately fell in love. “Cleo and Phoenix have adjusted extremely well. They are such a joy to have, and provide plenty of entertainment. I can’t imagine life before them.

“I work from home, and they enjoy spending time in my home office while I’m working. They can be found under my desk, on top of a pirate chair, under the pirate chair, in the middle of the floor, or taking my office chair when I get up to go do something. They also have easy access to the window sill to observe the world outside. They love boxes, so I have several scattered around my apt for them.

“At night, Phoenix likes to sleep on the edge of the bed, like he’s keeping guard. Cleo tends to sleep up against my legs or next to my chest. Phoenix loves to be held and lick my nose. Cleo is a typical cat and doesn’t like to be held much. She likes to play a game where she meows at me and then walks away when I try to pet her.

“June 1st was their birthday, and I made them catcakes, but they didn’t eat them.”

We thank Bruce for offering these two a loving home!
