Nikolas Ridikolas
“I don’t want to be your whole
life, just your favorite part.”
Day job: Purrfessional belly rub
receiver.
Dream job: Loves mewic. Can hit
tenor high C and plans to win AmeriCat Idol.
Purrsonality: Natural comedicat
known for random acts of silliness. Embraces his inner goofball and completely
dorks out for no reason.
Caregiver Notes: This is a fun
cat with lots of personality. Impressive that after a year as a stray he
invites belly rubs and greets me at the door with dog-like excitement, however
he has no experience with dogs. Nik is a good father to his 4 kittens with
AdoraBelle.
AdoraBelle
“We can’t all be princesses.
Someone has to clap when I go by.”
Day job: Devoted Meowmy of 4 -
AdoraPurr, Addie Pray, Kepurr and Kopea
Dream job: Pampurr’d Princess and
Full Time Lap Cat
Purrsonality: Grace Kelly regal
with a touch of Beyonce cool.
Caregiver Notes: Her approachable
friendliness and devotion to her first litter brought her to my attention. Belle
is sweet, though reserved due to hard start in life. She puts her family first,
allowing them to eat before her. She enjoys cuddles and sweet nothings whispered
in her ears. Sincere appreciation for how wonderpurr she is will make a huge
impact on her. She needs a home where she never has to worry or be afraid ever
again. Has no experience with dogs.
AdoraPurr
“If I was your kitten I’d never
let you go. You’ll never be alone. EVER!”
Day job: Manning phones for Itty
Bitty Adopt a Kitty Committee
Dream job: Designer for Pampurr’d
Princess fashions
Purrsonality: Wonderpurr from
ears to tail. Easy going, sweet and unafraid.
Caregiver Notes: Someone forgot
to tell “Dori” never-handled, stray kittens are supposed to come with a little
wildness. She loves to be cuddled, sits sweetly in laps and is trying so hard
to be purrfect in order to find a Forever Home. We assured her she has nothing
to worry about.
Addie Pray
“If it’s only a Paper Moon, does
that mean I can shred it?”
Day job: Toilet paper destroyer
Dream job: Actually, destroying
toilet paper is my dream job. Yay!
Purrsonality: All bark and no
bite--or scratch. Enjoys ear rubs and back rubs.
Caregiver Notes: Named for Tatum
O’Neil’s character in Paper Moon, Addie’s purrpetual squinty glare disappears
when she’s being handled. After spending her first 3 months as outside stray
Addie needs reassurance no harm will come to her, but as days go by she
displays a stronger trust that her life is changing for the better.
Kepurr
“When you get to know me, every
day is Black Cat Appreciation Day.”
Day job: Testing cat toys to
determine worthiness for his attention.
Dream job: His natural curiosity
would make him a fabulous Investigative Repurrtor for LOL Cats mewsletter.
Purrsonality: Calm, sweet-natured.
Enjoys back rubs while eating.
Caregiver Notes: Initial fear of
being handled has evaporated and he loves back rubs. He takes after his father,
Nikolas Ridikolas, with a zeal for fun. Has loud purr! Kepurr is definitely a
keeper.
Kopea
“Basement Cat jokes make me worry
no one will love me for the wonderpurr kitteh I am.”
Day job: Exploring caves, showing
fur-sibs he’s not afraid of the dark.
Dream job: Climbing mountains, proving
to himself he is worthy of a Forever Home.
Purrsonality: Curious, but
reserved. Possibly subjected to cruel Basement Cat jokes during his formative
weeks. Idolizes his father, Nikolas Ridikolas, and copies him thus his name,
Kopea.
Caregiver Notes: Kopea is on his
way to becoming a pawsome housecat. His life as a stray kitten left him
skeptical that humans won’t scare him, but he shows signs of wanting more from
life than watching his fur-sibs interact with me. He clearly adores his father,
Nikolas, and mimics his movements, even to the point of joining him in the
litter box! Kopea would be ideal in a home with happy Cat Whisperer-type people
willing to prove to him he has nothing to fear and was born to be loved.
