Richardsons Rescue

Richardsons Rescue 501(c)3 cat rescue organization dedicated to rehoming cats through our in-home foster care program. We are not a drop off shelter. It takes a village . . .

We're an active TNR group involved in community outreach, too. Any intake requests must be made through our website. Our volunteers reach out to members of the community in need of help with stray and/or feral cat overpopulation due to abandonment and neglect. We participate in Trap, Neuter, Return and pull as many cats or kittens we can with a good demeanor to rehome. It takes a village because w

ithout the help of the veterinarians and clinics, donations from the public, dedicated foster volunteers, and a caring community willing to adopt, we wouldn't be able to save so many lives. Thank you for doing your part.

Hi 👋🏼

Pipurr 👉🏼 and Ditsy 👈🏼 here!

We were wondering if you need one or two new friends in your home?

Basically, we have VERY different personalities. We will let our foster people describe us a little 👇🏼

✨✨✨✨✨

Ditsy is ALL in, very playful, just maybe not the brightest little ray of sunshine 🤭 She wants to start the battle, but play the victim with lots of verbal drama when another kitty plays back. Ditsy may be a bit food motivated … and willing to steal from her friends 😉

Pipurr is slower to warm up, but once she does, she’s all about making a friend. She has been known to sneak into bed when you’re not looking … but she’s also quite the little indoor huntress, always determined to catch the “bird” (aka: the feather toy) when you play with her!

✨✨✨✨✨

Aaaaaanyway … we are both ready for our forever homes, be that together or apart.

We would be super happy to have playful humans, big or little, to match our energy.

Check us out or tell a friend who you think might like us 🥰

PS: here we are being nosey neighbors in our boring neighborhood 🤣

This hunk of burning love is Mr. Baker, an estimated 8-year-old big, beautiful boy with a heart just as big as he is.

Mr. Baker was TNR’d at a local business about six years ago, where one of the employees quickly fell in love with him. He went from community cat to cherished family member and became a very well-loved traveling companion. Unfortunately, life threw his family an ugly curve, and Mr. Baker now finds himself looking for a new forever home.

And let us tell you—this boy is an absolute sweetheart! Mr. Baker has a wonderfully chill, easygoing, almost dog-like personality. He loves his people, enjoys being around them, and is just an all-around fabulous dude.

Mr. Baker is FIV positive, but that is absolutely nothing that should keep this wonderful boy from finding his forever family. FIV cats can live long, happy, healthy lives and can be wonderful companions.

Now, about that figure… Mr. Baker is currently 24.5 pounds. While he is naturally a BIG boy, he has enjoyed perhaps a few too many treats over the years. He is now officially on a weight-loss program, and his adopter must be committed to continuing his diet and helping him reach a healthy weight. We want those extra pounds coming off slowly and safely so Mr. Baker can enjoy many more years of being his big, lovable self.

If you're looking for a sweet, laid-back, dog-like gentleman with a whole lot of love to give, Mr. Baker may just be your guy

Hi 👋🏼

Juliette here again 😅

Wondering if you’ve gotten your daily dose of ✨whimsy✨.

My foster mom says I am PURRFECT in every way … and *I* say I’m ready for my new family!

I understand that after a long day, a little play time really sooths the soul. Let me tell you … I’ve got four foster kids who make SURE I’m entertained every single day.

I’m guaranteed to bring smiles, giggles, and happiness … and I will undoubtedly reduce stress 😻

Are you ready to add joy, energy, and love to your home?

Have your people call my people 🤭👇🏼

August has been SO slow on the adoption front! 😭 With so many families squeezing in those last minute vacations before school starts, our adoption applications have slowed way down.

We have a bunch of absolutely PERFECT kittens sitting here waiting for their forever families, and some of our sweetest little babies haven’t gotten a single bit of interest. 💔 We just don’t understand it!

Especially our 3 and 4 month old female gray and tabby kittens! They are sweet, playful, cuddly, affectionate little lovebugs, and somehow they keep getting overlooked.

So… who wants a little girl kitten sweetheart?! 💕
YOU DO! 😻

Snuggly
Playful
Sweet
Ready to steal your heart? ABSOLUTELY! ❤️

Don’t let the summer slowdown keep this little girl waiting. Her forever family is out there, and maybe it’s YOU!

Apply today and give a sweet kitten the happily ever after she’s been waiting for! 🐾🏡❤️

UPDATE: ADOPTED

Scout is a special little guy who is looking for a family willing to give him a little time to show them just how wonderful he is.

✨ At 16 weeks old, this beautiful buff tabby is full of kitten energy and loves to play, tumble and wrestle.

✨ He may be a bit reserved when meeting new people, but once he feels safe and knows you, Scout becomes a sweet, affectionate cuddlebug.

✨ He would love a home with a playful, active young cat who will keep up with his antics and be his wrestling buddy.

✨ And if you really want to win Scout over, just bring out the treats—this boy is definitely food motivated!

Scout
• has been neutered
• is FIV and FeLV negative
• is up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations
• and is microchipped

He has so much love and personality waiting to blossom with the right family. Is it you? 😻

Hi 👋🏼

Juliette here … and I’m curious … do you have a little TOOOOO much personal space?!

Because I’ve been told that I don’t know what that is.

So, if you’ve got toooo much and you’d like a liiiiittle less, I think I can help 😻

I am SO playful, spayed, microchipped, vetted, and just waiting for … you 💁🏻‍♀️

BONUS POINTS: If you’re looking for TWO spunky girls to take up that excess personal space, I had a bestie in foster for a little while. Her name is Ditsy and she is JUST as wound up as I am. We clicked INSTANTLY and would make a great instant family!

Hi! Mabel here 👋🏼 and I’ve got the BEST news.

This will be my last post … because I am HOME 🎉

Thank you to everyone who gave me the visibility I deserve … I am settling in well in my new home with lots of new family members. They’re purrfect and just what I’ve always wanted 🥰

Please remember all the friends I left behind. They’re waiting for the purrfect placement, too!

Hi 👋🏼 Mabel again 🤭 Three consecutive posts since her forever family still hasn’t found her 🫠

It may be morning, the sun might be shining, but there’s still one little cricket hanging around ….

JUST KIDDING! It’s Mabel and her incredibly unique purr 🦗 🦗 🦗

Have you ever heard such a thing? Mabel’s happiness is undeniable in her adorable chirpy song.

Be sure to check 👇🏼 for more info about Mabel … and to get pre-approved to adopt her or any of our other available babies.

Hi!

Mabel again … passing a little late night judgment (and potentially levitating … where are her legs?? 🤭) because she hasn’t found her forever family yet!

She’s waiting … kiiind of patiently. Maybe. But she’s a tortie so the side eye is real AND severe 👀

Is your home missing a speckled beauty?

Is it feeling TOO judgment-free?

Is your lap just a tad bit empty as you binge watch true crime documentaries, perhaps?

EXACTLY! She has the speckle, the judgment, AND the lap heating plus crimesolving companion commitment under control 👌🏼

So … what exactly -ARE- you waiting for? A sign?? 🛑 THIS IS IT! 🤣

As patient as this tortie can be,
🧡🖤 Mabel 🖤🤎
