Opal - Bonded with Sterling

Opal and her son Sterling have spent nearly their entire lives together.

They were once outdoor cats living behind our former shop on Main Street, where we got to know them before they eventually became part of the Revelation Gardens family. Their tipped ears are a little reminder of those outdoor-cat beginnings.

Life these days is considerably more comfortable.

Opal and Sterling are both sweet, easygoing cats with quiet personalities. They enjoy affection, being brushed and spending time with their people, but neither feels the need to be the center of attention. They’re perfectly content to find a comfortable spot and simply enjoy the day.

Their favorite place is the catio.

Having spent part of their lives outdoors, both still appreciate fresh air, sunshine and the opportunity to watch everything happening around them. An ideal home would offer them a secure enclosed catio or similar protected outdoor space where they can enjoy that connection safely.

They’ve also retained at least one useful skill from their outdoor days: both are accomplished mousers.

Opal and Sterling have shared a home for many years, and we would love to see them adopted together. However, we also recognize that a lifelong relationship doesn’t necessarily mean two cats cannot thrive independently. For the right home, we would consider an individual adoption based on what seems best for each of them.

What matters most is that these two quiet, deserving cats finally have the opportunity to experience something they’ve never really had before:
