The story behind ZoBu

It didn't begin with a business plan.It began in the rain.

A rainy day. Two tiny kittens. One instant, impossible-to-explain kind of love.

The moment that changed home

Sometimes family finds you.

01Found

Two tiny lives in the rain.

Zoro and Bunny were very little when we found them near a park on a rainy day—one black, one black-and-white, both waiting beneath a sky far too big for them.

02Chosen

One glance was all it took.

From the first moment, I fell in love. Leaving them behind was never an option. I picked them up, held them close, and brought them home.

03Home

They became part of everything.

Since that day, they have filled our lives with mischief, companionship and a kind of everyday love that quietly changes what home means.

From then to now

They didn't just come home. They became home.

The illustrated moment became a real life—made of naps, mischief, window watching and years spent growing side by side. These are the memories behind the name.

The name was already waiting

When it was time to name our dream, we looked home.

The first names that came to mind were theirs. Zo from Zoro and Bu from Bunny—two little initials, brought together with all the love that started this story.

Zoro + Bunny = ZoBu

The feeling behind every find

Everything began with love. Everything still does.
