Hardworking Lydia and her four sons (three already adopted!) were originally found in Calexico. When a local rescuer saw how sweet they were, she felt the family deserved a loving and stable home and reached out to The Rescue House. They moved into foster care where they thrived and are now ready to take on the next stage of their adoption journey and find a forever human family!
---Lydia has mastered the art of lounging around and letting go of stress (she'll help you relax, too!). With no more worries about finding food, she is enjoying and appreciating the comforts of a happy human home. Lydia loves being a pampered kitty and is a very calm, easygoing, and sweet cat with a soft meow and gentle green eyes. She likes to cuddle in your lap and share a soft blanket with you; she especially likes when there's a heated pad under her blanket. Lydia's one odd blind spot is her own tail: she sometimes forgets it's part of her body and feels the need to give the strange twitching thing an occasional thrashing. She's smarter about Kitty TV, and will dart behind the television in pursuit when an electronic bug goes off screen.
---Louden is a super-sweet boy who is cautious on first meeting until he settles in. He is quite content once he gets to know you and can appreciate your affection... and will be your forever best friend as long as you keep his yummy soft food available! He doesn't hide from calm visitors and will be out and about, but he's more comfortable with his known circle of humans and animal friends (as are most cats). Curious and lively, Louden never wants to miss out on a game; he loves all cat toys, and is Johnny-on-the-spot when you bring out a wand toy. If you load a cat entertainment app onto the TV, he'll play "catch" on the screen! For games of solitaire, crinkle balls and catnip sticks fill out Louden's repertoire.
---Louden's world revolves around his mom, and though he has his own play interests he always circles back to check on her and gets depressed when they are separated. When sleepy, Louden will wedge his way in to snuggle up with Lydia even if it seems like there's no space. They are constantly grooming and cleaning each other, and it is so precious to watch their close relationship! They MUST be adopted together.
Lydia and Louden are comfortable with other cats and have also lived with several dogs. They have done well with older children of 10 and 12 who have been taught to respect kitties.
Undemanding yet ready to engage when the opportunity comes to them, Lydia and Louden will be great companions for their forever family. Will you take this sweet mother-son duo home?
