Zippy and Dippy's Story

Meet bonded brothers Zippy and Dippy aka Mother’s Milk and Butch! <br/><br/>These handsome brothers were adopted from us in May 2025, when they were only 8 weeks old, by what we thought a perfect family. But in May 2026, we were contacted by their human dad, who informed us that he was planning on traveling a lot and needed to return the boys back to our rescue. <br/>This was absolutely heartbreaking, but we were able to place them in a temporary foster home together and now these friendly adorable silly boys are looking for the home again. For the family, who will not betray them again. For the family, who understand that adopting the cats is 15-20 years commitment. For the family, who will spoil them with love. <br/><br/>The boys are UTD on shots, neutered, FIV/FeLV negative and microchipped. They are being fostered in Brooklyn, NY, but transport can be arranged anywhere in NYC/NJ/LI areas. <br/><br/>If you are interested in our kittens and would like to arrange the meet and greet at fosters homes, please complete the adoption application using the following link (copy & paste it into your browser) https://form.jotform.com/82828565257166<br/>or text us for more info at (908) 986-2505<br/>Our cats and kittens are allowed to be adopted anywhere in NYC/NJ/Long Island.<br/>Please note, all our kittens under 6 months old are available in pairs only or to the home with another cat/cat friendly dog. Bonded pairs will not be split up.
