About this Cat
Rigatoni will make an excellent Backyard/Barn/Shop Cat!
Behold our "Buttered Noodle!"
Rigatoni is a sweet, healthy, young, intelligent neutered male who requires and indoor/outdoor home due to his territorial marking behavior.
He is extremely friendly, easy to handle, comes when called, loves being pet and getting butt pats. He also is very good at solving puzzles and has a sharp hunter's sense.
He would need supplemental food, water and shelter in a safe place like a patio or garage. He loves humans of all sizes, and enjoys the company of dogs and other cats though he can be somewhat territorial and a bit of a tail chaser! (Good thing he is neutered...)
We do not have a proper environment for him, so to prevent marking he is primarily kept in a large dog kennel. We found him as an adolescent in our Phoenix condominium dog-walk area, as he came up to us mewing for help. We've fostered him indoors for 1.5 years so he has adjusted to a supported lifestyle.
If you are looking for a very smart and friendly cat to be your shop buddy--and can handle some urine marking--this lil' guy is the best you could ask for. Please 𝕋𝔼𝕏𝕋 𝔸𝕄𝔸ℕ𝔻𝔸 𝟞𝟘𝟚.𝟟𝟠𝟙.𝟝𝟜𝟡𝟛

Adopt Rigatoni and Receive Rigatoni's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Rigatoni's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.

How will Rigatoni receive the contribution?
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Rigatoni, thank you for providing a home and a loving family! Please begin the process of claiming Rigatoni's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Rigatoni was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Rigatoni’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
What happens to unclaimed funds?
We want the Rigatoni’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Rigatoni’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
