Meet Rio 🐾

Rio is our sweet new boy — a 5-year-old cat who just joined our family. He’s curious, calm, and loves finding cozy spots to curl up in.

Rio is an indoor/outdoor cat, and he seems to enjoy both worlds — whether he’s lounging in a sunny window or exploring the yard with quiet confidence.

He’s already shown us what a loving companion he can be, and we’re excited to learn all his quirks and give him the happy, comfy life he deserves. 💛

Here’s what Rio’s previous foster parent had to say about him:

“Rio is a very friendly and sociable guy who knows himself and his boundaries very well. He adjusted very well and very quickly to my one bedroom apartment, after just the first few days he was already quite comfortable in the space. He is very aware and alert to the random loud noises that come with living in a busy apartment complex but is getting more used to them every day.

He likes long, slow pets down his back and chin/neck scritches and is sensitive around his back area so he does not like to be scratched or patted hard there. He also drools when he’s happy which is very funny. “

History

Rio was surrendered to Pets In Need when their owner could no longer care for them.
