Help Ronda

Last month, Ronda appeared outside crying for help. When the door opened, this five-year-old cat didn't hesitate and confidently walked right inside.

Ronda had clearly decided she was done with life outdoors.

Her microchip revealed her name and previous owners, but both phone numbers connected to it had sadly been disconnected. Rags to Riches did everything possible to find her family, including filing a found-cat report, notifying the microchip company, and attempting to make contact through social media. More than a month passed without a response.

So it was time for Ronda to begin preparing for a new chapter.

From the start, she made it clear just how much she loves people. Her caregivers describe her as an absolute lover who settled happily into foster care and appears comfortable around cats, dogs, and children. After finding her way inside, she seems more than ready to stay there.

Unfortunately, Ronda didn't arrive without medical needs. She was suffering from a significant ear infection that proved stubborn and required weeks of veterinary care.

Ronda has undergone multiple exams and rechecks, repeated ear cytology to monitor the infection, ear cleanings, and several rounds of medication. She also received important routine care, including FeLV/FIV testing, a fecal test, and vaccinations.

Though her health may not seem scary, her recurring issues have come with significant costs.

Thankfully, all that care is finally paying off: Ronda’s ear infection is nearly cleared!

Now, this affectionate girl is ready to put her days outside behind her for good and find the permanent family she has been waiting for.

Please consider donating toward Ronda’s veterinary expenses. Your support can help Rags to Riches cover the care that got her healthy and ready for the indoor life—and forever home—she so clearly chose for herself. ❤️
