Kitties available for adoption at Rikki’s Refuge Re-Tail

 RIKKI’S REFUGE CATS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION AT RIKKI’S REFUGE RETAIL IN FREDERICKSBURG, VA. (there is an adoption screening process!)

And tell all of your friends that we have cats for adoption at Re-Tail! Yetti is an approx. 3-year-old red tabby (short hair). She ignores the other cats, but, under no circumstances, can she live with a dog! Candy is about 4 years old, and is a medium haired red tabby. The shyest of the group, she is incredibly sweet! She’s good with cats, and probably good with dogs. She likes to watch t.v. and can frequently be found admiring herself in the mirror! Tiffy is a medium haired black cat (with a bit of white on her chest). I call her my little stinkbug! She’s playful, loving, curious…she’s good with cats and dogs. She loves to play with toys! Claudia is about 11 months old. She’s a calico. She’s good with cats and dogs, although she’s too interested in everything around her to really care about them. She loves to play with toys, especially interactive toys! Sammy, well, she would not sit still for a photo. She tried to take the camera away from me, and when I won that match, she turned to wrestle with Candy! She was so funny — chew, chew, roll around, then stop and groom Candy. Then roll her over again, play around, then stop and groom her again. Sammy is a snowshoe, about 4 years old. She loves people! She loves toys and attention! She is good with both dogs and cats. Let’s get these girls in to their furrever homes!
