Since he first arrived at the refuge in 2011, Riley has made great strides in socialization and now enjoys being petted and will even approach visitors to ask for attention. Riley is a handsome silver/grey tabby with bright green eyes; he loves getting head rubs and will give you little love nibbles if you stop petting him for one second! He can still be skittish at times, but Riley is a loving fellow at heart who has definite lapcat potential.
