Rico is a handsome young Savannah male recently brought into Marine Humane Society by concerned neighbors who noticed that he was seemingly homeless. Rico has no microchip and does not seem to have anyone looking for him. He is currently being FIV/FeLV tested, neutered and vaccinated and will be available for release to Savannah Rescue only, please do not contact MHS about him.
We do not have any background information on Rico, we don't know if he is good with children, dogs or other cats. As he seems to be a young cat he is likely still quite adaptable, and once his hormones have dissipated after his neuter we anticipate him being easy to integrate into a household. He is however a young Savannah male hence he is likely energetic and interactive and would not be suitable with older cats that may not appreciate his ebullience. He is reported to be quite handeable and sweet with people, even in the stressful shelter environment.
As Rico is in a shelter situation, there is no ability to get him to an airport for shipping, hence he is available only to local homes that can drive to pick him up in a timely manner.Because there is still the possibility that his owner might be located, we will require a home to foster only initially, with the ability to adopt Rico if the owner is not found. His adoption fee would be the standard $200 at that time.
Please email info@... if you would like to offer Rico a home. Include your location, your ability to pick him up, and a description of your household and why it would be a good fit for Rico.
Thanks,
Brigitte
