Statler is a funny and playful little girl! She's a fearless kitten, who is a lot of fun to hang out with and who loves to goof around — the adorable life of the party! But Statler also knows that every party animal needs a good nap, and she can sleep anywhere. She especially loves to steal her sister Estelle's bed when she isn't looking. We are giving priority to any double adoption of Statler and Estelle.
