Sterling and Bella are a bonded pair of 13-year old Persian cats. They are front-paw declawed. Their mom sadly passed away in December, and they are now looking for a wonderful foster or adoptive home to help them live out their Golden Years. They recently had a vet appointment and are a healthy pair. Do you have room in your heart and home?

The are a bonded pair and by each other's side a lot so they must go together. They grew up with small dogs around. None of the dogs were aggressive to them, so they do ok with smaller dogs that could care less about cats. Their human sister moved in with her two cats several months ago. These cats have been living along side her 2 cats the last few months, but her cats do not get along with them. Thus, Bella and Sterling's introduction to other cats has been a rough start. They were curious and friendly with these cats until the others started harassing them. If they go to a home with other cats, care must be taken to ensure a slow and successful introduction.

Sterling is an affectionate cat. He likes to lick and loves getting pets. He also likes to lick your hair. He is not a lap cat, however, but he will sit near you and meow or reach out to touch you with his paw for attention and pets. Just like Bella he is a purr machine. He also is routine with his treats. If you give him a treat at a specific time or at a specific part in your daily routine he is on point when that time comes around the next day, meowing for his treat (he is not picky about treat brand)! He isn't too much for playing with toys, but he loves a good box to sit in. He is a pretty social cat and is not skittish like his sister, Bella. He tolerates grooming pretty well, especially if there are treats involved. In the picture of Sterling alone, notice that he has shorter hair. He sometimes is shaved to help with any grooming issues. Full Disclosure: he is protective of Bella. If she meows or gets scared, he is quick to be by her side to see what is wrong. If there is another pet in the house that bothers her, he is quick to stalk and chase the other animal away. This means that the two cats with whom they current share their home and who don't like them, cause Sterling to often make sure the other cats steer clear of Bella). He is her knight in fuzzy armor!

Bella and Sterling are listed as a courtesy as we help their mom's family find a loving second home for them to live out the rest of their lives. We ask that you please fill out a non-binding adoption application on our website: purrfectmatch.rescuegroups.org/forms. Once we receive the application, we will forward it to the family. Thank you for choosing to adopt!
