04/15/2015 PET PROFILE MEMO
04/15/15 12:38 Adopter Luis Garcia stated that for the first 2 days Rizzo was very loving and friendly, seeking attention. However, his appetite had ceased and Rizzo was not interested in any contact anymore. The conclusion is there is underlying medical issues with Rizzo which is causing him to act differently.

04/04/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Rizhik is a beautiful orange gent whose loving eyes will immediately grasp your attention. He’s relaxed, and he will head butt and reach out for you to pet him. He will also purr “til his heart’s content! Rizhik can also be described as friendly, affectionate and playful. Any home would be a suitable home for Rizhik – one with beginner or experienced cat parents. Do you have room in your home and in your heart for Rizhik?
