Rescue:
A man pulled up to the sanctuary in his work truck on a sunny autumn day. He was asking if this
is the place that he could bring cats to. Apparently his boss found three little kittens on his
property and didn’t know exactly what to do with them. There was no mother cat in sight. Overnight they kept them safe and out of harm and in sharing the news with friends and family he
found a home for one of the kittens. But what to do with the other two. They were very, very tiny.
So through the grape vine they discovered Pet Patrol‘s sanctuary and the employee stopped
by. Later that evening, these two little kittens came into our care and they have thrived in their
foster home. Just a week later they called again about little Rio and his little sister/cousin
Rosa. They too were found just roaming the property and no mother cat in sight. Not being
used to finding kittens on their property they were grateful that they would be safe now.
Personality:
Rio is a very handsome cat who adores his little sister/cousin Rosa. They came into our care
together and it is not uncommon to see them curled up together and Rio grooming her. He
has settled into the sanctuary without incident and it is obvious that he has lived with a lot of
other cats before. As a colony cat they are accepting of new cats and new situations,
reassuring each other and making friends easily. Rio has had a great time exploring the
playroom and taking advantage of the cat trees, kitty tunnels and all the toys. Anything he can
chase or catch is fair game. Rio is ready to be adopted into his forever home. Hopefully with
Rosa, his little sister/cousin. One that will welcome him into the family and keep him safely
indoors.
