Give Rice a Home

Save-A-Pet cat is looking to find a family.

I come from a busy home with five older kids. I was said to get along with everyone.

Even though I was the only cat, I was never too busy to provide affection to all family members. Then things started changing way too fast for me – a separation and a new person moved in.  I just got completely stressed out.

Things were going too fast for me and I got a bit confused, due to not getting along with the new family member. After all this, they decided to bring me back.

Needless to say that as much as I try, it is very difficult for me right now to be the same cat I once was. After all, I used to be the only cat and enjoyed being a bit spoiled. Life was good. That’s all I had ever known since I was a kitten.

Coming back has been rather stressful and living with all the other cats at Save-A-Pet has taken a toll on me. I know a lot of people go by the first impression but I am still hoping that someone will be able to relate to my story and look beyond that. After all, my past family describes me as an affectionate and demanding cat that at times could be somewhat vocal too. Please come give me a chance.
