This week's PETS of the Week at the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter are Ringo and Jude, two handsome, affectionate, 7 year old cat brothers. Ringo shows their Siamese mix background a bit more obviously with his unusual seal and brown markings on a white coat and his pale blue eyes. His brother Jude is white and black with jewel-like yellow eyes.

Both cats love petting, so even Ringo can't stay hidden away if someone is offering some nice chin, cheek and back-scritching!! Both are stars at using their litterboxes, and they're interested in playing with toys, but that can be a little awkward when you're a big, slightly shy kitty in the confines of shelter cat condos... They'll be much more comfortable showing off their lean athleticism in a home where they can truly stretch out, run, and jump! Ringo and Jude are quite attached, so the shelter is looking for a home where they can stay together. Their adoption fee is 2-for-1 to help make that happen. Since they're over 6 years old, the shelter's "Senior/ Special Needs" fee of $75 applies.

This handsome, healthy pair was transferred from a more crowded shelter in the region, so the shelter is hoping to end their time in the Lonely Hearts Club Band by finding them a loving new home together SOON!
