Ricky

Ricky is the kind of cat who won't give his heart away right away... but when he does, it's something truly special.<br/><br/>This handsome snowshoe boy has striking eyes, a beautiful coat, and a gentle soul that prefers to take life at his own pace. Ricky came to us after being trapped outdoors, and while we don't know what happened in his past, it's clear that he feels safest when the world around him is calm, predictable, and kind.<br/><br/>New people and sudden movements can be scary for Ricky. He's not the cat who will greet visitors at the door or demand attention from everyone he meets. Instead, he's looking for a patient adopter who understands that trust is earned slowly. He needs someone willing to let him set that pace, celebrate the little victories, and appreciate the quiet moments.<br/><br/>Once Ricky decides you're one of his people, he transforms into a sweet and affectionate companion. He enjoys gentle pets, will happily take treats from your hand, and has an especially endearing habit of cuddling up against your arms. Watching Ricky learn to feel safe is one of those rare experiences that makes every ounce of patience worthwhile.<br/><br/>Ricky would prefer to be the only cat in the home and would thrive in a quiet household with experienced, cat-savvy adults or respectful older children.<br/><br/>Ricky is FIV+, but cats with FIV can live long, happy lives with regular veterinary care and lots of love.<br/><br/>The right person for Ricky isn't looking for an instant best friend. They're looking for a relationship built on trust, patience, and understanding. If that sounds like you, Ricky is waiting to show you just how rewarding that kind of love can be.<br/><br/>DOB: 2/13/24<br/><br/><br/>All cats are altered, microchipped, dewormed and given age appropriate vaccinations.<br/><br/><br/>PLEASE NOTE: We do not have a physical shelter, therefore all our cats reside in foster homes.
