Our sweet Miss Jones was surrendered to us back in August of last year. Sadly her pet parent had passed away, and a family member had brought Miss Jones to Oradell shortly thereafter to have her euthanized. Thankfully our friends at Oradell reached out to us before anything was done. We immediately agreed to take her on, and as we weren't sure when she had last seen a vet, we decided to address her medical needs first.
Initially we only found that Miss Jones had the beginnings of kidney disease, and was in dire need of a dental. As with most of our senior animals, as soon as she had recovered from her dental cleaning and extractions, we began seeking a foster home. Thankfully we found the perfect person for her.
Unfortunately despite receiving excellent care from her very attentive foster mom, Miss Jones' kidney disease has progressed some, and she has developed high blood pressure. She is eating a kidney care diet, receiving regular subcutaneous fluids and is on medication to help manage her blood pressure. The good news is that Miss Jones tends to be very food motivated, so is easily distracted for fluids and takes her pill right in a little pill pocket.
We understand that Miss Jones has her challenges, but she is an incredibly sweet and loving girl who has so much more life to live. She would truly be an amazing addition to almost any home. If you or someone you know might be interested in adding her to your family, please don't hesitate to fill out an application for her at rbari.org/cats.

More about this shelter
Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc. is founded on the belief that all animals have a natural right to humane treatment including proper care and safe shelter. Due to overpopulation, there are insufficient homes for most cats and dogs. Some are lucky enough to find temporary shelter and a few even find permanent homes. However it is a devastating fact that the majority are either euthanized or forced to chance life without shelter.
To support our belief and to relieve the unnecessary suffering of animals, we shall:
1.Extend every effort to find, evaluate, and secure good adoptive homes for animals in our care.
2.Provide animals with medical services and behavior therapy to the extent of our ability.
3.Adhere to a “no-kill” policy: animals shall not be euthanized for the purpose of providing space for new animals.
4.Adhere to a 100% spay and neuter policy.
5.Maintain continuing humane education programs and in particular to schools.
