Merida / Elinor

My story

Merida and Elinor are a 1-year-old bonded pair looking for a new place to call home! Merida (grey) is very loving and affectionate while Elinor (white/cream) is more reserved and quiet. They love to play together and run around before taking a long nap. Merida likes to eat anything in sight and explore her environment, always making sure it’s safe for her little sister. They are relaxed most of the time but love to play once they get acclimated. This may take a while as they’re both pretty reserved, but they will gain confidence and trust with loving, patient people. They currently live in an apartment with just their foster mom so it’s a very quiet space for them; as a result, they have been able to open up and show their true personalities. Their ideal home would probably be similar to their situation now, with less people and less stimulation. They haven’t met any dogs or other cats yet, and I think they would do best with an adults-only home, or one with very gentle, cat-savvy older children who can give them the space they need to gain trust. I think a smaller space has also helped Elinor, the more reserved sister, feel more confident, since she had a manageable area with which to get acclimated. They both have long, luxiourous coats, so their forever humans should also commit to frequent brushing of their beautiful coats, to keep them looking and feeling their best. This duo are so lovable and the bond that comes from a more reserved cat opening up and trusting you is so worth it. These girls will totally thrive in a quiet and laid back space where they are given the time and space to slowly adjust at their own pace.In the right caring, gentle and understanding home, these girls will turn from to reserved caterpillars into social butterflies. So, if you have a patient disposition and a quiet predictable home, these girls would love to meet you.----Interested in adopting or learning more about this cat?
