Take Ritchie and Ryan Home with You Today!

San Andreas, CA…Meet Ritchie (A059520) and Ryan (A059521), two neutered male kittens, about 5 months old.
These handsome brothers are more than just littermates—they are best friends who have shared every moment of their young lives together. They eat side by side, tumble through play sessions, nap curled up in the same bed, and even become anxious when separated. Because they find such comfort and joy in each other’s company, a home where they can stay together is ideal.

 

Ritchie and Ryan are gentle, affectionate juniors with A+ personalities. Unlike many kittens who can be shy at first, these two actively seek out human attention and thrive on connection. They’re happiest in your arms or by your side, purring away as they soak up affection. Raised entirely indoors, they’re not familiar with the outside world, so they will do best continuing life as safe and loving indoor companions.

Both boys are easygoing with people and haven’t lived with other cats, but with their sweet nature, they’ll win hearts quickly. Whether you’re looking for loyal companions or cuddly family cats, Ritchie and Ryan are ready to fill your home with double the love, playfulness, and charm. Since they are already neutered, they can go home with you right away.
