Bella's Story

Allow us to introduce you to Bella! Bella is the most angelic little girl you will ever meet! She is an almost 8 month old Tabby American shorthaired kitten who had a very rough start to her little life, but it did not phase her one bit and if anything, only made her a little sweeter! Bella and her brother Ryder were found inside of a disgusting dumpster at Food Lion by the workers dumping the trash! Both siblings had severe upper respiratory infections and the worst eye infections we have ever seen! One of our staff members took them home and began the long road of trying to get them healthy, and after 5 rounds of antibiotics, prescription eye cream and drops, Bella's eyeball unfortunately ruptured and had to be removed on 12/02/2025 and now we feel as if that only added to her overall cuteness and charm! She is now spayed, fully vetted, up to date on all required vaccinations and most importantly completely healthy! Bella is an snuggle bug who wants nothing more than to show you how much she loves you with purrs for days and as many headbutts as you<br/><br/>will let her give! She loves to be wrapped in a blanket like a baby and have her butt patted and carried around like an attached best friend! She is totally litter box trained and a treat and squeezie co<br/>nnoisseur! Bella is currently still with a foster who is our vet tech, but she and her brother Ryder would love a home of their very own! If you are interested in giving one or both the loving home they deserved all along when they were thrown away like garbage, please visit Richardsonrescue.org to fill out an adoption application and if approved, a meet and greet for adoption!
