10-year-old Cats Share a Remarkable Bond, Have Been Waiting 6 Months for Their Dream Home Together

Two10-year-old cats who share a remarkable bond, have been waiting six months for their dream home together.

Angus and Milo the cat brothersSarah Sylvester

Milo (tabby) and Angus (black) came to Nashville Cat Rescue when their owner could no longer care for them, due to health issues. They were 10 years old and had been a bonded pair since birth.

During the car ride to their foster home, Angus was very vocal while Milo was extremely anxious after leaving the place they’d known all their lives. “I set the boys up in my foster room, laid out food and water and left them alone for the evening to decompress,” Sarah Sylvester, who fosters for Nashville Cat Rescue, shared with Love Meow.

For the first two weeks, Angus took refuge in a small cubbyhole in a cat tree and only emerged briefly for food and bathroom breaks, while Milo started to adjust to his new living arrangements.

Sarah sat quietly in the room with the boys and helped them acclimate by playing a variety of sounds and tones. “Milo began to slowly make his way to me for pets and scritches. He is more confident of the two, and led the way in forming a friendship with me.”

As Milo spent more snuggle time with Sarah, she noticed his greasy coat, dull eyes, excessive thirst, and other signs of a health issue. She promptly took the tabby to an animal hospital.
