Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.   Meet Hoth Gentle soul with a cautious heart Hoth is a sweet, reserved gentleman who’s learning that a new chapter can still be full of comfort and kindness. Like Coruscant, he was surrendered when their owner could no longer provide care. Hoth is shy at first, but he’s making steady progress as he learns to feel safe again. With time, soft voices, and gentle affection, Hoth will reward his person with deep loyalty and quiet companionship. He would do best in a peaceful home where he can continue to build confidence at his own pace.  If you are interested in meeting Hoth please go to our website at www.rescueridge.com and complete an application.
