We met in January of 2024 and later found out we had been living less than half a mile from each other for over a year and our paths had never crossed. We began dating that February and moved to Durham together three months later! We eventually decided to add to our little family and adopted Zander from the Wake County shelter in August of 2024. We thought our fur family was complete, but after finding Oreo abandoned in our apartment complex, we decided to add the little tuxedo cat to our family as well.
