There’s something so beautiful about truly bonded animals. Watching the relationship between two cats who have always lived together can give a family a special kind of joy. Bonded pets are also ideal for families that want to have animals in the home but live busy lives that don’t always allow for providing adequate one on one social time—when they don’t have us, they have each other.
Today, we are featuring a lovely pair of bonded cats, Syd and Jade. These 9 year old cats are healthy, happy, and very cuddly with people as well as each other. They have had dentals and full bloodwork done. They are vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed and neutered.
