★ PRETZEL ★

Born: 2010-2011
Pretzel was a stray cat, then put into a foster system for a while, where my roommate found her living at a pet store for a couple years. She was happily adopted and eventually came to live with us. She is a sassy little creature, very likely to bite if you pet her wrong, but she wants to be halfway on top of you at all times anyways. She is getting elderly by now, but she is still plenty spry. I since moved out of state, and she still lives with my former roommate.

★ BRIE ★

Born: February 2023
Upon moving into a new house, I kept seeing a tiny white kitten out on the streets. I felt really bad for the poor little thing, and a friend of mine ended up swiping her sister (A little calico who is now named Boba). Within a couple of weeks, we saw the white kitten again and decided we must have her. We snatched her up and brought her in. She was terrified at first, but within just a couple days she adjusted. She loves to be petted and adores attention, and even lets us hold her in our arms. She is a very good kitty. When I moved states, she was kindly taken in by local family members.

★ FRITZ ★

Born: 2024
A very cute and troublesome little dacshund with one very striking blue eye and one brown eye. He loves meeting people but so far he hates other dogs and will bark at them nonstop. Sometimes he even barks if there is a dog on the TV. He is getting better though. We have been trying to take him out to the park to get him some exercise and socialized. He loves few things more than going into his yard to bark, or just stare into the distance, or to lay on the ground and enjoy nice weather. He will be offended though if he has to get his princely paws dirty in mud.

★ JETHRO ★

Born: 2023
An absolute unit of a fluffy brown tabby, Jethro was adopted from a shelter. He was a "failed" barn cat, which is basically code for how friendly he was towards people. He is less enthusiastic about humans than his doggy brother, but still quite friendly after even a short amount of time. He has also adjusted well to having another cat in the house, but the three of them do love to get up to antics. If Jethro sees a box, he absolutely must inspect, and sit in it if possible. He has a bad habit of trying to claw at the bed to wake people up while they are trying to sleep but we love him anyways.

★ ZELDA ★

Born: 2025
A tiny black and white cat who showed up at our back porch asking for snacks and petting. We brought her in right before a huge snowstorm, and now she spends her time making trouble and being cute. She is coming to terms with being a full time indoor cat, and will yell at the door if she sees one of us go outside, and she even tries to zoom out sometimes, but we get her every single time. She loves following us around, even going so far as to wait at the bathroom door if someone goes into the bathroom. Very amusing little cat.
