At just six months old, Thelma and Louise are beautiful brown short-hair tabby twins with soft eyes and even softer spirits. They are deeply bonded and must stay together. They are each other’s comfort, courage, and constant companion. They are both super sweet, friendly and affectionate; although Thelma is more vocal and outgoing than Louise. It takes Louise a little longer to be sure a new person or place is safe.
Thelma and Louise were discovered as tiny orphan babies with their eyes barely open. They were lovingly cared for by a very senior woman with limited mobility. To keep them safe and where she could care for them, they were confined together inside a small 3×3 wire kennel until coming to Catmandu. Because they lived their whole lives in a cage, the world outside the bars of their cage felt big, unfamiliar and scary to them. However, they are adapting quickly.
Since they arrived here about a week ago, we’ve been gently introducing the sisters to larger spaces, helping them build confidence one small step at a time. They are expanding their world by leaps and bounds, discovering the joy of freedom and reveling in their newfound ability to run, jump and play.
These two sisters are incredibly sweet, chatty, affectionate little souls who are blossoming as they discover the joy of playing and exploring. Watching them learn how to simply be cats is nothing short of magical. They seem to be okay with other friendly cats, but have never been around dogs. A canine friend would have to be super cat-friendly, calm, and gentle with them.
The girls are looking for a safe, patient indoor-only home without small children—somewhere they can feel safe as they continue to venture into the world. With time, kindness, and love, these tender girls will reward their family with deep devotion and the quiet, beautiful trust that only rescued hearts can give.
If you believe in gentle beginnings and happy endings, Thelma and Louise are waiting to meet you. Spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped, they are ready for the day their forever family comes to take them home. Meet these adorable twins this weekend at Catmandu. We are open Friday -Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 1829 Brown Street. Come early if you wish to adopt.
