Meet Rigoberto!

Rigoberto is a big, handsome gentleman with a very important name...and an even more important job: making sure everyone knows when it's time for pets and playtime.

With a name like Rigoberto, you'd expect a little sophistication, maybe a tiny bow tie, perhaps a cappuccino in paw. But this charming gray boy is also a total goofball who cannot resist a good toy chase.

Rigoberto is a social guy who loves being part of the action. When other kitties were getting attention, he made sure his adorable meows were heard loud and clear... because excuse me, Signore Rigoberto has arrived and would like his turn. Once he got some one-on-one time, he immediately came over for attention, stood in a lap like he belonged there, and happily soaked up cheek rubs.

But the true way to Rigoberto's heart? The wand toy. The moment he spotted one, he knew it was his destiny. He started swatting at it from under the door, and once it was officially in his possession, he transformed into a tiny furry race car—chasing, spinning, and batting at it with his whole heart. Churu was appreciated, but the toy department definitely won this competition.

This mostly gray handsome guy has a soft white patch on his chest, a big personality, and the perfect mix of playful chaos and sweet affection. He's a large, beautiful boy who loves attention, loves fun, and is ready to bring some charm into his perfect home.

If you're looking for a cat who's equal parts gentleman, comedian, and professional toy athlete, Rigoberto is ready to say ciao and steal your heart.
