Chai is a petite bundle of energy and a champion snuggler, while Nismo is a clever comedian who loves playful antics. Both enjoy bird-watching and bug patrol. They offer a perfect mix of high-energy fun and affectionate lap time, entertaining each other and melting hearts with their purrs and silliness.
