About Riley
Riley is a super sweet, snuggly boy who grows in confidence every day. He is a stunning blue boy with lovely soft fur. His favourite activities include snuggling the other foster cats, the dogs and even the human. You can often find Riley in middle of a cuddle puddle. He loves to sleep next to his foster person, and loves waking up to pats. He does like a knee too. It's his special job to keep his person's knees warm on the couch in the evening. Although it must be noted that Riley is most definitely NOT a pick up and cuddle cat.
Riley is a bit doglike, and will follow you from room to room and attempt to follow you outside to go on adventures with you. He is quite motivated by food too. Though he has enough manners not to steal from the bench. Riley takes a lot of comfort from snuggling with his people or his friends. He needs a cat friend in his life. He can go to a home with another cat social feline, or would do incredibly well with his sister, Rita, or his current foster friend Pamela. Riley would suit a home that is not 'too busy' with no smaller kids.

Riley came into care semi feral. He needs a more experienced cat owner. He is timid around people he doesn't know, but will settle pretty quickly if he is crated in a high traffic area and left alone to observe people.
Riley has a sensitive stomach. He does incredibly well on raw food with treats, but even 1 meal of tinned high quality dry will give him the runs. Riley has been who have been wormed, flea treated, vaccinated, desexed and microchipped (microchip #956000011411911, Source #RE101165). He is available for adoption right now!
