Barney Tabby & Tiger Mix Plain City, OH

Our vet calls Oleander and Barney the "Brokeback Mountain Boys," because they love each other and like to be together. Oleander is the orange tabby with the long gorgeous hair, while Barney is the big brown tabby. Oleander has long orange hair that is super soft. He is shy and for a long time, his foster mom couldn't figure out what was upsetting him. Turns out, he was being bullied by a dominate cat and he was scared. Once he was able to be in a foster home without the bully, he turned into a completely different cat. Oleander loves people and he likes to be petted. He also likes other cats, as long as they are not dominate. He especially likes Barney who was living outside and came into Oleander's life because of an ear infection. Poor Barney had such a bad ear infection that he has some deafness now. But that is okay with Oleander--he is just glad that his buddy found him. As for Oleander, he came to us from a very bad situation at a trailer park. When we found him, he had a large wound on his head. The boys would like to be adopted together for one adoption fee. They do need a home where someone will be willing to let them adjust slowly. They will be scared at first, but will quickly become your best friends. Both boys are about 4-5 years old. They have been neutered, vaccinated, and tested negative for feline leukemia/FIV. Oleander does like to talk to you and he and Barney are just looking for a home where they can be spoiled and loved. Won't you give Oleander a chance to be your big orange fluffy kitty? He'll bring along a big brown tabby named Barney so he won't be lonely!! If you would like to adopt the Brokeback Mountain Boys, please download an application from the "Adopt" page of the web site, www.bandocats.org and email it back to us at bandocats@columbus.rr.com or fax it to 614-873-0972. We are asking that Barney and Oleander stay together for one adoption fee of $75.
