Mimi and Dora are sisters that enjoy staring out the window, chasing and attacking each other, chewing on each others ears, and fighting through the shower curtain. Amidst their shenanigans, they also find time to groom and snuggle together.

When Dora wants attention she’ll jump on your lap and then flop over but when Mini wants attention she’ll nibble on noses and fingers. They’ll also jump into the shower — they like the water!

Dora makes some strange noises though. Lesley explains:

When Dora was a kitten, she got an infection which damaged part of her nasal cavity so now she’s a very loud breather. She snores loudly and sometimes squeaks. Some people come over and think that they broke her or that she’s sick. She’s a perfectly healthy kitty!

They have toy mice and balls but prefer their green mouse. When igorning their toys they knock breakable things off shelves and kill plants. After four plants, none are kept anymore. They also enjoy scraping paint off of surfaces in the condo and eating it.

Mini and Dora live with Lesley Babb who is a Case Manager for AccessAbility, Inc., a non-profit that provides vocational training for disabled and disadvantaged adults.
