Ariel and Salt

Ariel and Salt are brother and sister but a year apart.  I decided to put them together into the same blog for this reason. Ariel was born sometime...I think around April of 2005 and Salt was born around April of 2006. 

Ariel and Salt's mom was a feral cat that we had hang out at our house for many years. She passed away a few months ago. Ariel and Salt were also feral when I first saw them. It took many months before either trusted me enough to pet them and feed them. 


Ariel was the first to come inside and she seemed to adjust well to being a full time indoor cat.

This is Ariel before she made the transition inside.

I had no intention of bringing Salt inside until he had had an accident.


Salt had disappeared for a few weeks and one day I saw him limping and VERY skinny and noticed his hip was messed up. I took him to the vet and the vet told us that it will just have to heal on is own. Once healed he never showed he was in any pain thankfully.

 

This was when Salt became an inside cat full time. 

I got him the bed and toy to make him feel better.

Here's a close up with his first toy.

Salt and Ariel always seemed to know they were brother and sister even though they never interacted outside. 

These two love each other very much as you can tell.

Both have great purrsonalities and I'm glad to have them in my life.
