Stevie & Marvin are a pair of tight-knit brothers who are looking for a home together. They are young (1.5 years), playful, affectionate, and handsome – the whole package!
Stevie is a sweet guy who is becoming more friendly and cuddly every day. He started off a little bit shy but has really been coming out of his shell as he’s gotten to know his foster family. Stevie is always curious about what his foster mom is doing, especially when it involves running water in the kitchen or the bathroom. He is the more eccentric of the two cats. Stevie loves jingly toys and pieces of plastic. Hair elastics are his absolute favourite and he makes it his mission to drown every elastic he finds in his water bowl. When he’s done playing, Stevie loves getting scratches around his chin and his back!!
Marvin started out quite curious and social and is the more quick to adapt of the two cats, however, he can sometimes he a bit nervous when someone is walking around the house in shoes or moves too quickly near him. He seems especially skittish around legs and feet. However, if you’re sitting down relaxing, he likes to be near you. Marvin is the lower-energy of the two cats. He has a beautiful singing voice, he really enjoys cardboard boxes, and he loves looking out the windows. Marvin plays less intensely with toys than his brother, but the two play very nicely with each other and get along so well. They spend most of their time near each other, nuzzling and chirping. They prefer to eat together. They both really enjoy anything with catnip in it!
The ideal home for this pair is one that is lower on the energy scale, but also one that can accommodate and enrich both of them. They will be very happy and enriched in a spacious home (not a small apartment or suite) with lots or room to explore. They will do well with teens and will seek out social interaction. Neither has any experience with dogs, and due to Marvin’s nervousness around legs and feet that move fast, a home with younger children or high-energy teens wont be the right fit.
