“But I tell you, a cat needs a name that’s particular,
A name that’s peculiar, and more dignified,
Else how can he keep his tail perpendicular,
Or spread out his whiskers, or cherish his pride?”

T. S. Eliot- “Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats“

These two year old girls came to the shelter together, and we hope they will be adopted together.
Shadow, the dark torti, is friendly but very shy.
Tabby torti (torby?) Tiger is much more outgoing.
