JHJC Pets 

URGENT: Pirate and Rum
need homes.

These two 7-month old (coming from Amman, Jordan) kitty siblings (can be separated) are looking for a loving home/s. They are great with kids, playful, but love to cuddle when the time is right. They don't mind staying indoors. Fully vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, neutered and potty/scratch post trained. Please email Esther Grossman HERE if you are interested. Ready for adoption Dec. 14!
