Pixel & Parker – Female Male DSH

Pixel (male, darker tabby) and Parker (lighter tabby) were born in care from one of the mummas from the industrial estate rescue. As they grew, it was obvious that both of them had some eye issues, which isn’t uncommon coming from situations like that.

Both of them suffered from Eyelid Agenesis, which is where their eyelid doesn’t form properly in utero. This causes the eyelashes to rub against their eye which eventually causes ulcers, which if left untreated can cause reduction in vision. The treatment for this is cryotherapy, which burns the hair around the eye so that it cant rub against the eyeball. Pixel had his surgery in May and is doing great. Parkers surgery is scheduled for early June. Both of them also have “wonky eyes”, which is harmless but gives them the look of a googly eyed cartoon cat. We believe Pixel has full vision, however we believe Parker has limited visit (perhaps 60-70%), however this does not inhibit her in the slightest.

Normally we don’t “bond” kittens so young, however these two are pretty much joined at the hip, and if one goes somewhere the other will cry, or go and find them – even the vet noticed this during their last visit. They need to stay together and make a wonderful duo.

Both kittens love to play and run around and tackle each other. Parker is a quiet girl, whereas Pixel has a lot to say and will tell you all about it. The are shy when they first meet new people, however once they know you they are the smoochiest sweetest kittens ever, and the moment you touch them they start purring away like crazy! They just need someone to look past that initial timidness and give them a chance.

Their favourite place to sleep is in bed with their foster carer and the other cats, curled up to each other.

If you are looking for an amazing duo to join your home to keep you laughing in joy at their antics, please look past the timidness and the crazy eyes and give these two a chance, we know you won’t regret it.
