Double the Love: Meet Stella & Taz – A Mother and Son Looking for Their Perfect Home

Sometimes life changes in ways that even the most loving pets struggle to understand. Taz and Stella have been cherished members of their family for years, but after the arrival of a new baby, the busy household has become overwhelming for these sensitive souls. They are now searching for a peaceful home where they can relax, be loved, and truly be themselves once again.

Taz is a 5-year-old Maine Coon mix with handsome tabby markings and beautiful golden eyes. This affectionate boy is happiest when he's the center of your world. He adores curling up in your lap for afternoon naps, enjoys being brushed, happily accepts treats, and will soak up every bit of attention you're willing to give. Taz loves his people and simply wants a calm environment where he can feel safe.

Stella is Taz's sweet mom, an estimated 9-year-old Maine Coon mix with a gorgeous black and caramel coat and striking yellow eyes. She's a gentle, quiet girl who may be shy at first, but once she trusts you, she'll become your loyal companion. Stella loves chin scratches, whisker rubs, being brushed, and making biscuits when she's content. While she prefers to lounge beside you rather than on your lap, she'll always want to be close to the people she loves.

These two would absolutely love to stay together, and there is something incredibly special about watching a mother and son continue their lifelong bond. However, they can also be adopted separately, if the right homes are found.

Both Taz and Stella would do best in:

  • A quiet, adult home
  • No dogs
  • No other cats (unless adopted together)
  • Plenty of love, patience, and one-on-one attention

Their family has noticed occasional litter box accidents since the household became much busier with a young child. Because this behavior began only after the major change in their environment, we believe they will flourish again once they're settled into a peaceful home where they feel secure and can receive the attention they've been missing.

Both are spayed/neutered, negative for FeLV/FIV, and have a history of asthma that is currently well managed without medication. Their rabies vaccines are not current because their family observed worsening asthma following vaccination, though their other veterinary care has otherwise been maintained.

Most importantly, they are not in danger of entering a shelter. Their loving family is committed to keeping them safe until the perfect forever home comes along.

If you've been dreaming of a calm, affectionate companion—or perhaps a beautiful mother-and-son pair to share your heart and home—Taz and Stella may be exactly who you've been waiting for.

❤️ Help us give these wonderful cats the peaceful second chance they deserve. Please share their story—you never know who might be looking for a pair like them.
