Entrant's First NameKatie
Your Pet's Rescue StoryRico is a 15-year-old rescue from Pet Alliance and has been a wonderful companion since we brought him home at just six weeks old. We adopted him after the passing of our 23-year-old Maine Coon, and he quickly filled our home with warmth and joy.
He’s an indoor cat, but thanks to a cat door leading to our spacious patio, he enjoys daily enrichment watching squirrels, birds, and other critters—safe and happy on his side of the screen. It’s the perfect setup: a win-win where no one gets hurt.
Rico has wholeheartedly adopted my husband as his person. He follows him everywhere, sleeps by his side, and shares a sweet and unexpected bond with him—they both have asthma. My husband manages his symptoms with care, and I help with Rico’s medicine, making them kindred spirits in the truest sense.
Rico is gentle, affectionate, and endlessly lovable. We cherish every day with him and hope he’ll be with us for many more.
