Kids and Kittens (Shelter Me Barn Cats #81 and #82)
The kittens are four month old male siblings.
The kittens grew up outdoors and were a little too wild to place in a home. Feline Friends of New Hampshire rescued them and asked Shelter Me, Inc. to find a barn home for them.
We feel very lucky that we did. The kittens look very comfortable - only minutes after being transferred into the cage and the young barn owners look very happy to have them.
Update from the barn owner -
We have really been enjoying the cats. We renamed them Lucifer and Iago. Lucifer is very friendly and loves to rub around your legs. He is a homebody and is in as soon as it is dark we find him snuggling in his bed. Iago is a hunter, a bit more skiddish and likes to stay out late. It usually takes me a few minutes to call him in with treats around 9 at night. I can pick both cats up, Lucifer will sit on your lap but Iago would prefer not to be held, he does like to be patted. One of them left a decapitated bird by their food dish as a present and one left a dead chipmunk on the door mat!! They are enjoying chasing my rabbits and chickens when they get a chance but are wary of the 2 sheep and 2 goats we aquired in September. They are a bit hard to photograph but I think I got a couple of good picks…Happy fall!

My husband and I rescued two very adorable cats. There were three and one was adopted out. We still have two little girls who are looking for a home. We have fostered them to the point that they can be picked up and petted. Once they get to know you, they will come to you, but are still a little skittish of strangers. They both get along very well with our dog. They are fully vetted, have been spayed and are about five months old. We aren’t sure of the age as they were born outside under a neighbors shed.
We’re hoping to find a good home for them. If you know of someone who needs/could use barn cats, please, please, please let me know. We’re anxious to find a good home for them.
Thank you,
