Milwaukee Record Cats Of The Week: Phoenix and Rebel

Milwaukee Record is working in partnership with Urban Cat Coalition to help find loving homes for area cats. Each week, we—with generous sponsorship from Skilos, A Family Pet Store—plan to highlight a feline friend that’s currently up for adoption by naming it “Milwaukee Record’s Cat Of The Week.” This week: bonded tabbies Phoenix and Rebel.

Meet Phoenix (m) and Rebel (f), a dynamic duo of playful tabbies who are looking for a forever home to call their own! These two are a bonded pair and must be adopted together because where one goes, the other is sure to follow. They take their hangout time together very seriously.

Phoenix is the ultimate charmer, he is a sweet, attention-loving gray tabby who’s always ready for pets and play time. He can be shy at first, but once he gets to know you, he’s all in for head scratches and playful laser pointer sessions. You might call him the leader of the two because his patience and kindness help his shy bestie come out of her shell.

Rebel (aka the shy bestie) is the perfect partner-in-crime for Phoenix, the yin to his yang, the moon to his sun, the cream to his coffee…you get it. Although Rebel is is a little more reserved, she is an equally loving cat who just prefers to interact with us humans on her own terms. Once she feels comfortable, she happily accepts affection with scratches and soft pets but she needs a little more time to trust new people and prefers to be the one to call the shots.

Together, they make the perfect pair. With plenty of toys, treats, and a safe space to explore at their own pace, these two will flourish and be a wonderful addition to a quiet, loving household.

If you’re looking for a duo who will bring tons of love into your home (with just a touch of patience!), Rebel and Phoenix promise to reward your kindness with a lifetime of fun and loyal companionship.
