Description

At just 9 weeks old, little Rita has already faced more hardship than any kitten should.This sweet domestic short hair was found wandering the streets completely alone. Frightened, vulnerable, and very sick, Rita had no one to care for her until a kind-hearted foster stepped in and gave her the chance she desperately needed. With love, patience, and proper care, Rita slowly regained her strength and made a remarkable recovery.Now healthy and thriving, Rita is ready to leave her difficult past behind and find the forever family she's always deserved.Despite everything she's been through, Rita hasn't lost her spark. She is playful, curious, and bursting with kitten energy. She loves to explore, chase toys, and investigate every corner of her world. Rita will do best in a home that can keep up with her playful personality, provide plenty of enrichment and toys, and shower her with the attention she craves.Rita should do well with children of all ages when interactions are properly supervised. She may also be able to live with dogs, but she will need slow, patient, and proper introductions to help her feel safe and confident.After surviving life on the streets and overcoming illness, Rita is searching for something she's never truly had—a family to call her own. Could you be the one to give this brave little girl the happy ending she deserves?If you are interested in adopting Rita or another homeless pet at Macomb County Animal Control, they are open M-F from 10am-4pm.Adoption fee: $100
