About Riku

Riku is a 10-year-old grey cat who carries himself with a quiet dignity. He’s spent most of his life on his own, so he tends to be reserved and somewhat shy around new people or situations. Despite his cautious nature, there’s a softness to him—a longing for gentle affection that comes out once he feels safe. Riku is looking for a home that’s calm and understanding, where someone will be patient with his need for space and independence. With the right person, he’ll relax and share his gentle side, making a loyal and loving companion through his senior years. Click apply to start the adoption process.
