Meet our very special kittens Olly & Sage! This 5-month old duo has overcome many obstacles and they deserve a loving home that will regard their differences as just another reason to love them! Olly & Sage have unspecified neurological issues that cause them to have tremors. Their movements are not very graceful, and they are wobbly when they walk, but that doesn’t stop them from living life to the fullest! Both of them eat normally, are able to use the litter box with no issues, and are currently on no medications for their condition. Olly & Sage came in with seven other stray kittens that were surviving on their own outside. The fact that these two were able to survive the wilderness as kittens is a testament to their strength and determination. Sage is the more curious of the two, and she loves to leisurely explore her surroundings. Olly is more laid back and enjoys playing with toys in his bed. They are both very social and enjoy scritches behind their ears and napping together. We would love to see these siblings find a home together so that they can continue to play and grow at their own pace. We promise you they will make it all worth it!

Cats have been domesticated for thousands of years and have a rich history. The domestication of cats likely began in ancient Egypt, where they were revered as sacred animals and often depicted in art and literature. Cats were believed to have special powers, including the ability to ward off evil spirits, and were often kept in temples and homes to protect against pests.

As cats became more domesticated, they spread throughout the world and were prized for their ability to control pests. In medieval Europe, cats were kept on ships to control rat populations and were often depicted as symbols of good luck.

Cats were also popular in ancient Rome, where they were kept as pets and were often depicted in literature and art. In the Middle Ages, cats were associated with witches and were often feared and misunderstood. However, by the Renaissance, cats had regained their popularity as pets and were often kept by wealthy families.

Today, cats are one of the most popular pets in the world and are kept by millions of people. They are highly intelligent and adaptable animals that can thrive in a variety of environments. In addition to being popular pets, cats also play important roles in many cultures, including serving as symbols of good luck and prosperity.

Despite their long history, there is still much we do not know about the domestication of cats. Studies of ancient DNA have shed some light on the origins of domestic cats, but there is still much to be learned about their evolution and the role they have played in human history. Regardless of their past, cats remain an important and beloved part of many people’s lives today.
