Sylvie (and Ginger)

My story

Sylvie and Ginger MUST be adopted together. There are NO exceptions. Adoption Fee: $550 for the pair Well, it is a safe guess that you have never seen a pair of Scottish Fold sisters like these two.They are so special. I couldn't believe my eyes when a breeder brusquely dropped them in my carrier in a MacDonald's parking lot. Sylvie was 4.6 pounds. Tiny! and her sister, Ginger, wasn't that much bigger. Sylvie is now 6 pounds and Ginger, just a little over 7. I have had them in foster now for four months. They needed time to unfold and learn to enjoy attention. They didn't have names. They hadn't had much of anything. Ginger's coat had been chopped down with scissors and needed to grow in. Vulnerable little unhappy babies, they needed to learn what it was like to be loved. Treasured is the word I like to use. Cats are so resilient. These kitties hid, relaxed a little, peeked out of their hiding place, gained some weight, looked out a window, and finally became grateful little kitties loving our kindness and attention. They are part Persian with their flat faces and super long hair. For Persians, love from their humans is the breath of life. They are vulnerable little beings who are dependent on love and must be protected and pampered. So I am looking for a home that can offer stability, quiet, safety, probably no other pets or maybe very quiet non dominant ones, no young children. These are not kitties for someone with an out of the house work schedule. Can you put them in the center of your home and heart. Can you nurture them til the roughness of their beginnings are forgotten and their hearts swell with happiness? Do you have time in your life to be there for them? Have you had Persians in your care before? That is a lot to look for right there but it is not all. These two have the most plush fur I have ever seen.Their amazing fur is a big job for anyone. Believe me on this and I have cared for a lot of Persians. Their coat is difficult. Their new family will need to run a comb thru their hair every day. That will probably suffice to keep matts from forming. Or you could have them lion cut once or twice a year. Their hair is fine silk and that makes matting more likely and the vast quantity of it and length intensifies that. I know there are organized, careful folk who would find this daily ritual really pleasing and full of love. Is that you? Look at the hair in Sylvie's tail -it is over 7.5" long. I measured it. Some family will be so lucky to get to live with the company of these two kitties who are treasures beyond price. Ginger is spayed, vaccinated, FELV tested, dewormed, microchipped, eats wet and dry food, and is litterbox perfect. She is fostered by Harriet in Santa Cruz.
