Notes from Revelation Gardens
Olive and Pickle have been through a lot together—and through it all, these two sisters have had each other.
Originally rescued from the streets of Nashville, Olive and Pickle went on to do something pretty remarkable: together, they helped care for ten kittens, including two orphaned babies who needed a mama.
At some point in their journey, one of the sisters also required a C-section. Later, their lives were disrupted again around the time of a catastrophic flood in their community. We know the sisters experienced significant upheaval and were moved several times before eventually being brought to Revelation Gardens, although we no longer have enough information to confidently tell every detail of that part of their story.
What we do know is that after so much change, Olive and Pickle arrived together.
And together is how they will stay.
These sisters are very bonded and take comfort and security from one another. Both can be timid with new people, which isn't particularly surprising given how much instability they've experienced. They need someone who won't rush them or expect instant affection.
Give them time to feel safe, though, and you'll discover two incredibly sweet girls who enjoy affection and spending quiet time with the people they trust.
Olive and Pickle aren't looking for someone to make them less timid. They're looking for someone who understands that trust doesn't have to happen on a schedule.
They've cared for kittens who needed them. They've weathered upheaval and more than one change of home. And through all of it, they've had each other.
Now we'd love to find them the kind of home where neither one ever has to wonder what's coming next.
