Vester and Visby are the darling feline children of Christena Copeland, director, communications with (DMRF).
Names:
Vester Bentley: age 7
Visby Doolittle: age 4
Nicknames:
Vester: Vestey, Mousie and Little Mouse
Visby: Visby Doo, Doo, or just Doo Doo.
Species/Breed: They are both beautiful, sunshiny, orange tabby cats.
Fav food:
Vester really only loves dried cat food and dried cat treats, but he pretends to like canned cat food just so he can be the alpha to Visbys betahell rush in and eat it all and then throw up almost immediately afterwardsusually on the one rug we have in our house that is otherwise completely tile or wooden floors.
Visby loves canned cat food, dried cat treats, tuna water, and baconhe will practically steal it off your plate.
Special tricks:
Vester:getting what he wants via enchantment. He knows how to charm anybody and will talk constantly, in different tones, indicating that that he wants and need affection. He is also a shoulder cat and loves to be carried around that wayhell literally go anywhere draped on your shoulder!
Visby:getting what he wants with shy cuteness. Visby was a feral kitten, so it has taken him a while to connect comfortably with humans, but when he does, its incredible. He chirps instead of meows and he loves to cheek rub your hand while youre working.
Best qualities:
Vester:by far the most trusting, loving, and affection cat Ive ever known. He loves people and will let you trim his nails, kiss his belly, and spoon with him to no end!
Visby:because he had dual hip surgery at 18 months of age, he cant jump as well as a normal cat can, so, hes learned to hoist himself up but his front legs and he is therefore very muscular in the shoulder area! He looks like a little furry tank-kitty.
Social Media:Vester is on Instagram: @vesterbentley. Visby is too shy to have a social media account.
