This is Captain Havoc and Bug, respectively. They saved my husband and I from broken hearts when both our dog of 13 years and our cat of 12 years passed away unexpectedly. They are both a year old and were a bonded pair so we adopted them together, as we could not separate them. Obviously, they do everything together, lol. They are extremely entertaining and are very mischievous. We love them to pieces and they make our house a home. Black cats make the best of friends. It’s sad that they are the least adopted color of cat.
