Someone knows these cats?

Penny Zhang from Half Moon Bay

Hi neighbors , we found two cats wandering around near Sunderlands Road. Does anyone know who they belong to? They look a bit dirty and hungry, so we’re a little concerned about them. Please let us know if they are yours or if you recognize them. Thank you!
