Spearfish is a quiet, gentle soul who prefers to observe the world before fully stepping into it. She’s soft-hearted and sweet, finding comfort and confidence through the presence of other cats. Around feline friends, her curiosity shines—she’ll explore, play, and snuggle up for peaceful naps. Humans are still new and a bit intimidating for Spearfish, but she’s making slow, steady progress. She appreciates calm environments, predictable routines, and people who respect her space. Like Cheyenne her sibling, she has excellent litter box habits and settles nicely into daily rhythms. Spearfish isn’t a lap kitty and may never demand attention, but her subtle personality and quiet companionship make her incredibly special for someone who understands shy cats and the joy of earning trust over time. Spearfish is not bonded , but she would love to be adopted with Cheyenne or into a home with another confident, friendly cat who can help her feel safe and brave. Sometimes the most meaningful bonds are the ones you earn. If you have a patient heart, a cat-friendly home, and a resident kitty looking for companionship, Cheyenne and/or Spearfish could be a beautiful addition to your family. Spearfish is from a stray surrender with 3 siblings.

More about this rescue
Ruff Start Rescue is a foster-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit companion animal rescue that primarily serves communities throughout the state of Minnesota, as well as states in the south with severe pet overpopulation. We rescue stray, neglected, abandoned, and surrendered dogs and cats as well as ferrets, guinea pigs, rabbits, and other critters. Most of our work is accomplished by a complex network of volunteers, fosters, and supporters, all of whom come together to save thousands of animals each year.
Since our inception, we’ve firmly believed that a home is usually a far more desirable environment than a shelter or a kennel for most companion animals in need of a forever family. As a result, we rely nearly exclusively on volunteers to provide foster homes for rescued pets until they find their adoptive homes. Please note: this means no animals are available at our facility for public viewing.
Each pet in our care is provided with routine vaccinations, spay/neuter procedures, microchipped, given internal and external parasite preventatives, and tested for common bloodborne pathogens such as heartworm and feline leukemia. Advanced veterinary care is provided to any animal that requires such services before adoption.
If you are interested in fostering, adopting, or volunteering, please fill out an applicable application at our website: www.ruffstartrescue.org.
