NORTHPORT, NY — Meet Dottie and Mighty Man, an adorable sibling duo born around Aug. 15, 2025, after being discovered in a window well alongside their mother and littermates. Now healthy, playful, and thriving, the bonded pair has been named this week’s Northport Cat Rescue Association Kittens of the Week.

Dottie, a spirited calico with a big personality, is known for her love of playtime. She gravitates toward toy mice, string toys, and is especially fascinated by running water. Her brother, Mighty Man, is described by volunteers as a sweet and affectionate orange tabby who “lives for cuddles and kisses,” often curling up close while still keeping things fun and playful.

Their connection is unmistakable, rescue officials said, noting the two spend their days playing, wrestling, and snuggling side by side. Because of that strong bond, they must be adopted together. The siblings were previously fostered in a home with children, other cats, and dogs, and adapted well to all.
