Ricky's Story

Ricky is a super sweet boy who was living in a bus with several other kittens. He loves attention and doesn't have a mean bone in his body. He has incredibly bright leyes. He is learning to play gently. He wants to pull you in and bite - not hard or mean, just his way of saying he wants to interact with you. He is responsive to "no" and redirection. He would be a great cat for someone who appreciates an affectionate cat and can consistently redirect his play behavior.

Your Local Fur Mama's Adoption Policy

We ask more questions than most rescues because it truly matters to us that every animal ends up in the right home. Our process starts with completing our full adoption application. After reviewing your application, our team will schedule a brief phone interview to get to know you better. All adopters must then submit a quick home walkthrough video for our team to review, along with vet records for any current pets. For dog adopters, the video should include outdoor space. Once everything is reviewed and approved, we will arrange a meet and greet in person for local adopters or by video for out-of-state adopters. Please note that completing the process does not guarantee an adoption, as our goal is always the safest, healthiest match for both the animal and the adopter. If the pet you applied for is not the right fit, we are happy to work with approved applicants to find a better match. For kittens, priority is given to adopters willing to adopt a pair, as they thrive with a buddy. Some kittens are listed as bonded pairs and must be adopted together.
