My story

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

NIKO is a chonky 7-year-old boy who loves attention and will roll around on his back for ear scritches. He is very curious and his big round green eyes make for silly expressions. Sometimes it even looks like he can see into a different dimension! He’s a goofball who likes to play and will stand up on his back legs like a human to bop a toy. Niko also insists on sprawling on the floor in the funniest positions, with curled paws or legs stuck up in the air.

While he’s very charming, he can be saucy and we do not think he would have the patience for a home with small children or other cats. Come and meet this big smush!

More about this shelter

Animal Rescue Foundation (ARF) is a 100% volunteer, non-profit, no-kill shelter for dogs and cats. We are funded entirely by private donations, fundraising efforts by volunteers and adoption fees.

ARF is always looking for new animal lovers to join us. We need caring people who are interested in devoting some time and effort to helping needy animals. Just a few hours a week can make a difference in the life of an animal. When you give animals the gift of your time, you'll get back as much as you give—maybe even more.
