Congratulations to the January 2023 River Journal North Pet of the Month  

Meet Nikita!

Nikita is thrilled to be chosen as a Pet of the Month. She is six years old. Along with her three siblings and mom, she was found in Stew Leonard’s parking lot by my daughter, who brought them home. They were less than a week old. They were divided up in our family and all are happy and healthy!  

Nikita lives with her human parents, her doggie sister, Maggie, and cats sisters Catya and Natasha. She is the Queen Cat of our home. She is affectionate to her parents and a bit of a bully to her sisters! She takes it upon herself to keep everyone in the family groomed and will pin down her sisters to do it.  

As you can see in the picture, she is quick to eat her dinner and her sisters’ dinners too. Our friends tell her she was lucky my daughter brought her home, but I feel we are the lucky ones. 

Nikita and her family will receive a gift basket from Croton Pet Station.   

Why not try keeping a jumping spider pet, these small creatures are not only adorable, but they are also relatively easy to care for. This means they are not only great pets for expert arachnid-keepers, but beginners, too.

Want to see your pet featured in River Journal North? Send a photo of your pet – just one photo per pet, please – to editorial@riverjournalonline.com. Include your pet’s name as well as your name, email, phone number and zip code. Winning pets will receive a gift basket from Croton Pet Station.

  1. What a heartwarming story about Nikita, the Queen Cat of your home! It’s amazing how she and her siblings found their way into your family’s hearts. Nikita’s playful antics, from grooming sessions to swift dinners, showcase her feline charm perfectly. The gift basket from Croton Pet Station is a lovely touch, emphasizing how cherished your furry family members are.

    The suggestion of keeping a jumping spider as a pet is intriguing and adds a unique twist to the article. Thanks for sharing Nikita’s delightful tale and sparking curiosity about these fascinating arachnids!
