Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Hello, I'm Rhiannon! I know I look a little grumpy (life on the streets can wear you down), but I'm actually one of the sweetest cats you'll meet. I absolutely love to make new friends, and being pet is one of my favorite things. I'll happily follow you around to ask for more ear scritches and cheek rubs, flopping down and rolling around all the while! Hit all of my spots just right, and I'll even start to drool. I may be an older cat, but I still have a goofy an playful personality. I love snacks and still show an interest in catnip, and have the cutest high-pitched meows.

At some point I will need a dental with your veterinarian!
This animal has been treated for a skin infection while in shelter care. If this is not fully resolved at the time of adoption, it may require follow up diagnostics and treatment with adopter's veterinarian. Additionally, if underlying environmental or food allergies are contributing to the current skin condition, these may require ongoing management with adopter's veterinarian.
