My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Affectionate, Adorable, Mellow Man

Ryder came to CARE tipping the scale at just a wee bit over 30lbs. His blood-work was excellent as well as his overall health, other than the obesity. Ryder is working hard to lose the excess weight, but it is going to take time. In the meantime, he deserves a loving home he can call his own.

Ryder is the type of cat that has never met a stranger. If you show him that you're interested in interacting with him, he'll roll over so you can pet his belly. All he wants is to be loved. He's polite and respectful of other kitties, and fine with cat friendly dogs.

Ryder is truly a love. He doesn't demand anything. Meows are typically because he wants to be around people. He doesn't have to be in the same room with you, just wants to know where you are. He's so very sweet.

Ryder needs 2-3 cans pate food daily as he continues his weight loss journey. He was already neutered and is up to date on his vaccines. He has a silver-back appearance because it was difficult for him to groom easily with the excess weight. Ryder will be micro-chipped before adoption. Apply to meet him soon, he will not disappoint.

Go meet their pets

CARE is a volunteer-based organization which relies on foster caregivers to provide loving, stable homes to homeless cats and dogs, helping them become the best possible pets for their future forever families. We do not have a brick and mortar facility; our foster pets reside in our volunteers’ homes and become a part of the family until a forever home is found. You can meet many CARE foster pets at CARE adoption events or, after an application is submitted, by agreement with the CARE foster caregiver at a mutually agreed upon place.
