Why I need a new home

Landlord permission issues

My story

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


Rico is an 8-year old grey shorthair. He has been living with my elderly mom for his entire life. We need to rehome him because my mom has dementia and can no longer care for him. Her assisted living facility is requiring that we remove him from her apartment. Rico is used it a quiet living environment. He would do best i0n a quiet home, probably as the only cat. He takes some time before he will warm up to new people, and it will take lots of TLC before he is persuaded to love his new people. Rico is a sweet boy who loves his food, loves snuggling, playing and laying in the sun. (But he does not like to be picked up!) If you think you can provide a happy home for this good kitty, please reach out.
