RIKKI's Story...
Rikki is a big lovely orange tabby in search of a new home to live out his twilight years. Rikki lived his life so far in a home with only a female human companion — a loving caretaker who passed away in early 2012. He has been through a difficult transition but with patience and attention, he is getting more comfortable every day. Rikki is currently adjusting well to a foster home with more people (two) and other animals (cat and dog). He taps into his inner kitten with a good cat nip toy and plays interactively with a feather duster cat toy. Rikki LOVES to be brushed and rub his face on rough surfaces like cardboard scratching boxes. While still a bit timid/shy, Rikki is also alert and playful and we believe he would do well in quiet home with another adult or two and perhaps another passive cat or very calm dog. We estimate he was born February 2, 1999. Bio# 3213 KB

About Our Rescue Group...
ICRA is an all volunteer non-profit organization dedicated to reducing the suffering of the abandoned cat population of Alameda and Oakland, and to educate people to their plight. We provide foster homes for our rescues until we can place them into loving homes through our adoption program. On a limited basis, we humanely trap feral cats in order to spay/neuter them before releasing them back to their colonies. Our goal is to expand our program for maintaining cat colonies in our communities. To make this expansion possible, we need more volunteers.
