My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Ricotta! Ricotta was brought to ICHS along with a few other cats after the person who was taking care of them passed away. Ricotta and her friends came to us spayed, neutered, and with tipped ears. So, due to that and them being under-socialized, we can assume that these guys were someone's outside cats. That being said these cats are making progress every day! Ricotta has proven to be the most stubborn to change and spicy out of all of her friends. She does not enjoy the company of our shelter staff just yet. However, our staff refuse to give up on her and are working hard to help socialize this gorgeous girl. Who can blame her for being upset, her whole life changed when she was brought to us! So, if you have a lot of patience and are looking for a loyal friend, consider putting in an adoption application for our spicy queen, Ricotta.
