My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Ruby! She is a 12 year old sweet and sensitive potentially Himalayan or Ragdoll mix.



Ruby has been adjusting well to her foster home but is understandably shaken up after losing her home of 12 years. She loves affection but will get spooked if people come on too strong. She takes a few days to get comfortable but will then seek pets and affection. She takes time to snuggle on the couch or in bed when she wants but also loves her alone time in a quiet warm spot.



She needs a quiet and patient home to let her feel safe and get love on her own terms.



She will be happiest in a home with no cats, dogs, or kids. She could potentially live with another older independent cat but we think she needs to be able to protect her peace from overwhelming housemates.



Ruby is currently on a prescription diet for urinary needs. She is prone to crystals and UTIs and benefits grately from a calm environment, urinary supplements, and ample hydration. She had a cystotomy to remove stones before her surrender to the shelter and has been recovering well. She will need to have regular senior wellness visits (bloodwork and urinalysis recommended) and monitoring to make sure her urinary health continues to improve.



Vaccinated for FVRCP and Rabies. Neuetered and microchipped and FeLV / FIV negative.



To apply for Ruby, visit our website (www.waggytailrescue.org) for an adoption application. It is important to fill out an application as soon as possible for consideration, and we require a complete application for you to meet an animal. We are currently unable to respond to general email inquiries as an all-volunteer run rescue. If the animal is on our website, they are still available.



Waggytail Rescue CANNOT guarantee the exact age of any adoptable cat, or final size of any of our adoptable kittens. We rely on the information provided to us by veterinarians, shelters, owner surrenders and other circumstances bringing the cat into our rescue.
