Ritz's Story

Ritz is a petite solid black kitty that came to Helping Paws in late 2024 when her owner went into hospice care and later passed away. She was very shy at first and had to be live-trapped inside the house, but after several months in her foster home, she is becoming more confident and comfortable. She gets along well with the other cats in her foster home but would also probably do OK as the only pet. Ritz will need a quiet adoptive home with owners who are patient and will give her the time she needs to adjust to a new home and people.
