Notes from Marshmallow Foundation
Meet Pierce & Meryl – Bonded Littermates Seeking Their Forever Home!
These beautiful, mysterious siblings are classic “observe from a distance” kitties with huge golden eyes and velvet fur. They prefer watching life from 3–5 feet away — unless it’s wrestling time with each other. They nap together in a cozy ball on the highest perch and turn into tiny panther acrobats with wand toys (best viewed from afar).
Petting is tricky: Pierce allows ~2.5 strokes before tragic-eyed retreat; Meryl tolerates one chin scratch then delivers an offended slow-motion exit. Picking them up? Hard no — they melt into liquid smoke. This bonded pair does well with calm cats and thrives in a quiet, adult-only home with patient people who let them come to you. They need high perches, wrestling toys, and plenty of space and time. With patience, these gorgeous shadow-kittens may eventually claim a spot at the foot of your bed. If you want two low-key, mysterious companions, Pierce & Meryl might be the perfect pair!
