After a statewide search I’ve located the cat and surprisingly the other cat I want.  They’re up in Morgan Hill and about 1 ½ years old.  Yeah I know, notice the striking resemblance.

Desi and his brother Ulysses were trapped as kittens at a business in Silicon Valley. Desi is a very sweet boy, and absolutely adores his food. He is always waiting, one of the first kitties to demand his share of the food. He meows politely to let you know that it's his turn to eat. Initially skittish, he's come a long way; he's still a bit shy but once you win him over (not very hard, just feed him!) he responds with a great deal of love. He purrs and purrs and loves to have his back scratched. He is very good with other cats, and ideally would go to a home with other cats that would like a companion. If you are looking for a almost-perfectly matched pair, perhaps you'd like him and Ulysses too? Desi is just waiting to be petted and fed and loved. Won't you give him a place in your house?

Ulysses is a brown striped tabby tuxedo cat with a cute pink nose and adorable round face!He was trapped in 2002 as an older feral kitten from a San Jose industrial park drainage pipe along with many of his siblings. His brothers and sisters quickly learned to love being around humans and have all been adopted into homes.Although Ulysses was very brave while learning to trust humans during his stay in a foster home, he initially decided that he prefers the company of other cats more than humans. However, as time has gone by, he has become friendlier and friendlier. He often hangs around with his brother Desi, and waits for his share of the food. When he does finally learn to trust you enough to let you get close, he absolutely adores having his butt scratched and loves to play with a kitty teaser, which will be a good way to get to know him after adoption! And watch out .. as the volunteers know, once he decides he likes you, he WILL follow you from place to place demanding to be petted! He's still a bit shy, but adores other kitties, and really wants to become closer to humans. While earning his trust, you can enjoy watching Ulysses cuddle and play with other cat buddies in the meantime!  Ulysses gets along extremely well with other cats and kittens. He grew up around two big dogs while in his foster home, so he figures they're OK to have around. Ulysses has already been at the shelter for many months so we'd like to find him a special home where he can be accepted for who he is.
