Elsie & Stevie Domestic Short Hair Mix Warwick, RI

These two are victims of a sad story...they came into the shelter along with several other cats, the owner did not care for them. They had upper respiratory infections for a while which was left untreated resulting in the necessary removal of one of Elsie's eyes and both of Stevie's. Because Stevie had been blind for more than likely his lifetime the loss of his eyes doesn't impact his life any differently than beforehand BUT because he cannot see he will need a special home. He will need to adopted with his friend Elsie because she helps guide him and feel more at ease in general. They will need a quiet home without young children. A smaller space is preferable since he will need to figure out where everything is and something one level since stairs will be a problem and a potential danger for him. Stevie is a very sweet boy but a bit jumpy so he needs to know you are there before touching him or he will be squirrely and scared. once he knows you are there he loves to be pet and turns into a purring machine. Elsie is more outgoing because she can see out of one eye and equally as sweet. Both are under 2 yrs old. They love to sleep and play together and Stevie actually will play with toys around her.
