Meet Tony and Lieutenant -- Tony on the right, Lieu on the left. They're half-siblings, about a year and change apart. They're both former barn cats who were promoted to indoor cat; Tony was brought in after he showed up on the porch with wounds, and Lieutenant invited herself inside shortly after Cocoa (Tony's previous companion) passed away unexpectedly. They're both complete snugglebugs. Tony's an 11-pound block of muscle, but he's a huge softie and very gentle. Lieu is six pounds on the nose; she's half her brother's size, but purrs just as loud and is easily twice as brave. While he hides from new experiences, she's right there in the thick of things most of the time, confidently checking things out.
They love laps, they love cuddles, and they love each other.
