These Cool Cat Brothers are Double the Fun

Lazlo and Diego are bonded brothers who were found homeless on the street and always stuck together outside. So they would like to find their forever home together as well! Both boys are very affectionate cats who love attention.

Lazlo is the more outgoing and self-confident of the two. Diego takes his cues from his brother. He’ll hang back and watch what Lazlo does for a while (like chasing a string toy) before trying it himself. Lazlo will come over and let you know he wants attention, while Diego is a bit on the shy side, despite the fact that he really yearns to be petted. He’s been known to flop down on the floor and anxiously wait for someone to come over and pet him. He especially loves to stretch out on the floor and knead while having his back scratched. Both boys will happily lie in your lap and purr for belly rubs. And both like to have you flick string and wand toys around for them to chase. That especially goes for Lazlo, who will leap around like a wild kitten when playing.

Both boys adore crunchy cat treats and get very excited at the sound of the crinkly bag. These brothers, who are about 3-years old, like to play and wrestle vigorously but got along nicely with a very mild-mannered cat they have been living with for a while.

While you’re there, you can fill out an online adoption application for them and learn more about our shelter. You can also call us at 617-787-8872. We are the oldest cageless no-kill cat shelter in the country, and we’re located right here in Brighton!

The mission of Gifford Cat Shelter is to provide a safe haven for abandoned, stray, abused, neglected, unwanted and injured cats with the goal of re-homing and ending the needless killing of community and companion cats. It was the first cageless shelter in the country and has been in existence since 1884.
