From the Foster Family: If you’ve been looking for a sweet, low-drama companion who loves people as much as playtime, look no further! Rickie has been thriving in foster care, and while black cats sometimes get overlooked, this little one is pure sunshine wrapped in a glossy coat. She has reached that ideal age where the intense "baby kitten chaos" has settled down, but the playful, affectionate personality is out in full force. Rickie is extremely adaptable and would thrive in a variety of homes—from a cozy apartment to a busy family house. Anyone ready to offer chin scratches, a few toy mice, and plenty of love will gain a loyal companion for life. Thanks to her sweet and gentle nature, Rickie does great with kids. She enjoys interactive play with gentle hands and loves receiving affection from family members of all ages.
About Me: Hi! I’m Rickie! Don't let the sleek panther looks fool you—I'm a total softie! At just one year old, I've officially grown out of the tiny kitten phase, but I still have plenty of fun, playful energy. My favorite thing in the world is being around people. Whether you're working, watching TV, or getting ready for bed, I'll be right there keeping you company. I would do great in almost any home that has plenty of love, chin scratches, and cozy nap spots to share. I'm friendly enough for a busy household, but sweet and low-maintenance enough for a quiet apartment.
