Twins Adopt Twin Kittens

A week ago when Gus (fka Zeus) and Elsa (fka Grace) were adopted by a family, the father said one of the reasons they selected Gus and Elsa was because Eros and Anteros looked like twins. He felt they should be adopted by a family with twins. I started calling the little boy kittens twins, and in my mind I started envisioning a family with twins finding them. Three days later a woman called Theresa looking for kittens. No mention was made of twins, but the woman and her two 6 yr old children came right over to the Venice Cat Coalition booth at the Farmer's Market in downtown Venice to meet the kittens. All three of them immediately fell in love with Eros and Anteros. When I said they were twins, the mom exclaimed, "My children are twins!" Voila. It felt like destiny to me. So perfect.

I invited the family to visit the kittens at my home so they could meet them and play together outside of the confines of the adoption cage at the market. Julia loved little Eros and named him Spot. Gianluca fell in love with Anteros and named him George. All agreed, the kittens had found their family and the family had found their kittens. The adoption was made June 1, 2009.

  1. Hello, my name is MeiMei and I am looking forward to seeing the kittens that came from our backyard on your website. I really love the one with the broken leg. I call him "Precious". He is a very sweet boy. I would like to come and see them sometime if that is ok and give them my best huggs. I really miss them and hope they are ok. I almost got to adopt 2 of them, but, my little sister had a bad reaction to them.
    I hope they are ok. I made a kitty quilt after I brought the kitties in and can send you a picture if you would like to see it. hope to hear from you soon.
    love, MeiMei
