In the shelter’s words
Meet Ricco! Ricco is a magnificent, all-black adult male cat with a heart of pure gold. If you are looking for a cat who brings instant calm, sweetness, and peace into a home, Ricco is your guy. He is a quiet, gentle soul who speaks volumes with his stunning golden green eyes. Ricco is wonderfully affectionate—when you hold him, he will happily make biscuits right on your arm and purr. One of his most endearing traits is the way he interacts with a comfortable bed - when he lays down, he literally melts right into the comfort of it! Ricco is 2-3 yrs old, neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, on parasite prevention, microchipped and tested. He was born and raised in a home on a rez where we work. The home had children and no other pets. His guardian is no where to be found. Ricco is sweet and calm, and as mentioned, very expressive with his eyes. Ricco is a cuddle bug. Ricco is the definition of a wonderful forever cat, ready to settle in and become a cherished, peaceful presence in your family. Please contact us at desertpawsnm@gmail.com to determine if he's available to make him a part of your family!
