Notes from Thundering Paws Animal Sanctuary

Meet Larry and Gary, two wonderful brothers with big hearts, different personalities, and a bond that makes it clear they belong together. Gary, also known as Curly, is the affectionate social butterfly who wants to be wherever the people are, while Larry is a little more independent and prefers to show his affection on his own terms. Together, they're a lovely pair who are ready to find a forever home that has room for both of them.

Gary is a true lovebug. He craves attention, loves being held, and is happiest snuggled up with his people, especially at bedtime. He's also a fan of the foster family dog, a small Bernedoodle, and enjoys playing with his canine friend. If you're looking for a cat who will happily soak up all the affection you have to offer, Gary is ready for the job.

Larry is a little more of a typical cat. He's friendly, affectionate, and easy to handle, but he's also content to do his own thing. He enjoys spending time with his people without needing constant attention. His more independent nature makes him a nice balance to Gary's enthusiastic approach to life.

Both boys are wonderful with children, even young ones. They're gentle, tolerant, comfortable being held, and have never shown any aggression. They adore their young friend in their foster home, seek her out, and love sleeping with her. Gary enjoys playing with the dog, while Larry generally keeps to himself.

These brothers are tightly bonded and love each other dearly. They spend much of their time together and often prefer playing with each other over toys. They enjoy sunny windowsills, the ball-track scratcher, and, of course, anything involving food. Both are extremely food motivated and enjoy dry food, Nulo puree treats, and dried chicken hearts. Larry tolerates nail trims very well, while Gary is a little more resistant but manageable.

Larry and Gary offer the best of both worlds: one attention-loving snugglebug and one friendly, more independent companion. They're wonderful family cats with plenty of love to give, and their bond is a special part of who they are.

If you're looking for two sweet companions to share your home, your sunny windowsills, and maybe even your bedtime, Larry and Gary are ready to meet you. These brothers are a bonded pair and must be adopted together.
