My story

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

I`m in a FOSTER HOME! If you would like to set up a time to meet with me, please email my foster parent at Megan.Fosters.Cats@gmail.com

Rita is a sweet, independent girl who is reserved and can be startled by quick movements or unfamiliar faces. However, once you earn her trust with patience, love and a few treats she will show you her affectionate side. She adores chin and head scratches and her loud purrs are a little reward for those who take the time to connect with her.

She enjoys a calm environment without loud noises where she can build her confidence at her own pace. Rita would thrive in a quieter home where she can feel secure and continue to blossom. She would do best with a patient family who understands her need for gentle interactions and who will provide her with a safe space to grow.

While Rita may not be the type to curl up in your lap, she appreciates pats and being spoken to. As Rita comes out of her shell, her playful side and inner kitten will come out! She loves to chase felt balls around her foster home and play with wand toys. Rita also enjoys interior design, she will occasionally redecorate by moving soft blankets around the apartment.

Rita also enjoys chatting with her foster parents and sometimes herself. As a bonus, Rita`s charming kitten, Pink Ranger, is also available for adoption, and they would love to find a forever home together!
