Riley
Location: Macon, Georgia, USA

Meet Riley, the sweet-heart I found in a dumpster behind a sporting goods store, just hours after being rescued. She weighed just one pound, was full of fleas and worms, and was very hungry! Now Riley is a year and a half old and an absolute joy to have around. She is proof that one person’s trash can is another one’s treasure!

Pounce! What a sweet story — so glad Riley is doing well, and in a great home!
She not trash…..look at those ears…happy she has a furr-ever home..
Life of Riley FUZZ
Riley was one lucky little kitten. I love to hear about sweet rescues and their furever homes.
Riley, with ears like that you should be able to fly, ala Dumbo! How adorable you are! Indeed, there are treasures to be found in trash.
Awww Riley is a lucky baby that you found her. I bet she’s beautiful now.
What a sweet little girl Riley is! I’m glad she was found and is in a loving home. Has she grown into those ears?
I had rescured a ugly kitten whe had big ears, longest tail and legs,, sit at a slant and I told him if he ever grew into all the largeness he would be a beautiful cat.. He did and he was and so smart ,, I miss him so

Look at her paw too! I bet she is a beauty!!!! Thanks for taking her to your home. It must be a very happy one!!!
She is a sweetheart, and love the name it suits her ;D
Oh sweet Riley, I am so happy for you!
AWWWW!
Oh Riley, what big ears you’ve got!
Would love to see the after pic of little Riley! Poor little thing, a tabby treasure, but definitely the worse for wear, there. Rescuing kittens is good karma.
I love her ears! THU-PLOOF…..
Don’t throw me away FUZZ

Riley is a real lucky little girl. It’s so sad how people will treat these little sweeties. Riley may have found the biggest treasure that fateful day…Happy story..Well done and the best of scritches and headbonks to Riley.
Kitty hugs and kisses for you Riley. And some for you for taking her and giving her a wonderful home!!!! She looks like she she is Queen of the house and loving every minute of it!!!!
Riley is a very lucky girl. I love her ears! Thank you for giving her a loving home.
Poor baby, she doesn’t look like much of a morning kitty in that picture. Glad she turned out OK.
Rilley reminds me of Charlie the coyote with thows ears , I like him.
What a lucky little girl that someone with such a kind heart came along and rescured her. You are most definitely not trash, little Riley!
It’s clear she loves you for what you did for her. You did a very good thing for a very deserving kitten.
would love to see a pic of her now bet she is beautful since she was so cute in the pic
I bet Riley loves you like craaaazy for rescuing her! It’s shocking how bad people can be, but then so heart-warming to know there are good people too, like you and all the other kitty rescuers!
Between Riley’s ears & paws, she looks part rabbit. A cute bunny tho. Thanks for rescuing her.
Precious little Riley, so full of potential! So glad you were rescued, you deserve a good life sweetie.
How wonderful for Riley that such a kind heart found her and gave her an loving home. Kudos to Riley’s companion for taking her in and kudos to Riley for living and living well.
Oh my, poor little kittikens….my heart just aches when I see the most vulnerable of God’s creatures thrown out like Riley was. Bless you for rescuing her!
Oh my goodness I love his big ears! I will never be able to understand how someone could throw little kittens and puppies away. I just want to take a nap with this little lover balled up on my belly :0)
So glad this poor kitty was found. I never understand people who could put such a beautiful creature in a dumpster. I would like to have those people put in a dumpster with no food water and feel the same terror this poor little one felt. It just breaks my heart. Glad she was found in time. Hugs and scritchies to this poor baby.
Amen. Though, anyone with that capability is living in a dumpster without food or water. No spirit; no hope etc. As my late grandma would say “Hell’s a waitin’ on ‘em”!!!
The act of kindness brings us all closer to god; that’s another reason I love this little kitty site!
ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL i can say is B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L

Oh my god look at those big ears and adorable face…..I love this kitten!
yoda kitten!
I’m in Looooove! This cutie brings back memories of my first 2 babies 20 years ago; Cori and Jenny were 8 week old kittens that we found thrown out in a paper bag by the side of the road. We were blessed with them for 18 and 16 years respectively, and I always said what you just wrote:” someone’s trash was our most precious treasure”
Riley is gorgeous….PLEASE Kittenmaster may we see her now all grown into her pretty ears?
I just love this little one. She reminds me of my own little one that was only about 2 weeks old when I got her. Tjose ears spock comes to mind
GOD BLESS YOUR SWEET HEART. RILEY IS ADORABLE.
Looks like a cross between Barack Obama and a bat.
So heartening when one of the little Tossed lucks out!!! Riley surely has.
seems so much easier to spay and neuter a few of the little suckers than to be tossing untold hords of them…but then that’s the long view.
Goes to show that even the most scraggly strays can make great cats *wags tail*
Such a beautiful kitten under all this,my heart goes out.I so wish I had a farm to take in all abandoned cats and dogs…
OOOOHHHH—I am feeling VERY UNFLUFFY to the scum who threw her out! A pox on them! Thank you for rescuing her, you will be rewarded many times over.
The ears! The tongue!!!! So cute I can’t stand it!! I love these little fox-kittens…I have a pic of one of my babies where the ears are so big, he looks like the next words spoken ought to be “cleared for takeoff on runway 5″…Riley is such a cutie and is SO lucky to have a caring human.
Aw, Riley looks like she has satelite dishes for ears! ‘m sure she grew into a wonderfully beautiful cat, too!
I want her! So glad you found her - what a treasure! People who dump kittens = grrrrr.
She is going to grow into those ears and paws in another two years or so. She is going to be a BIG cat. Very pretty color pattern. I wish that there were more people in this world with kind hearts like yours.
awww bless this little angel Riley and you too for taking care of her. i bet she’s all cleaned up and thankful to have a great home. she is adorable
