About Rio

Meet Rio! Rio is a sweet boy eager to find a family to call his own. He thrives on affection and deserves a loving home full of patience. His warmth and charm are undeniable, and he’s hoping to find someone who sees how special he really is. It's important to note that Rio has tested positive for Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV). He will need a special home where he can thrive safely; this could be a home with another FeLV-positive kitty or a single-cat household. Fortunately, FeLV doesn't affect humans or dogs, so he can happily coexist with other family members! A FeLV diagnosis doesn’t define Rio; he’s full of love and deserving of a forever home just like any other cat. If you have space in your heart for a special boy like Rio, please consider giving him the life he has been dreaming of. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
