Story
timid, sweet tabby girlThis delightful kitty is a brown tabby named Paula! Paula was brought in as a kitten with her brother from the streets and he’s since been adopted. Paula is a bit timid yet super gentle. She really loves the laser pointer and once she’s comfy you can pet her whole body all over and she rolls all around and purrs and it’s the cutest thing ever. She’s truly hilarious and sweet and would make any family super happy. She gets along with other cats but could also be your one and only. She would be best in a quiet home. If you are interested in meeting Paula, please go to our website at www.rescueridge.com and complete an applicationVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 30, 2024, 9:15 pm

Story
Shy beautiful pantherMontana was living on the street until his feeder and a volunteer with the rescue trapped him and brought him to the rescue. He is is shy at first but once you gain his trust he is very affectionate and loving. He loves to make biscuits, get pets, climb cat trees, and eat treats. He likes to play with teaser toys. He gets along with other cats and is not at all a dominant male. Montana is a lover, not a fighter. He still hides from people with loud voices and when more than a few people are in his living area. He would do best in a quiet home. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 30, 2024, 9:15 pm

Story
curious black catBeanie was an indoor/outdoor cat who had a few litters of kittens before her former owners asked the rescue for help. She is very curious. She loves to play as well as get pets on her face and under her chin. Sometimes she can be feisty and will bat you once she has had enough pets. However, the sassiness has diminished over time and she is very loving. She has been known to be an escape artist so caution going in and out of doors would be needed for her new family. She coexists with other cats but doesn't love them. She would do well as your only cat or with a mellow cat sibling.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 30, 2024, 9:15 pm

Story
Phantom was a kitten born feral. Two young ladies found him under their porch , he was extremely playful and interested in them . They couldn’t keep him for a number of reasons and came to me. I agreed to keep him till they found a home but over time lost contact with them. Phantom is a great cat , extremely playful and at times very affectionate. He can be shy at first but will warm up shortly and sooner then later will be wanting to play with you. The problem is my girlfriend’s allergies. I am sad to have to give him away but am hoping for a happy home for my little buddy . Anyone who agrees to take him should be very happy. Phantom is very intelligent and loves to have fun . He’s not picky with his food and very easy to take care of.

Story
If youre looking for a high risk, high reward kitty, then look no further. Mango is your boy. Mango is a very sweet, but also a very skittish kitty who was once part of a semi feral cat colony. Mango shines as despite his background, hes a huge sweetheart! Living on the streets, Mango was part of a colony with a caregiver who abandoned them after years of caring for them. Rescued from this hopeless situation, Mango has warmed up considerably once in foster. He will find his way into your heart with his sweet, quiet meows and penchant for LOVING belly rubs and pets once he has warmed up to you. While a nervous cat, he is also very sweet, and would always rather run than fight. He is 4yrs old and a good boy who tolerates nail clipping well, cuddles with his chosen person, is good with other cats, and is also FIV+. With proper care, Mango can live a long and healthy life with you if you open up your heart to him. He will reward you with a growing confidence and affection by the day!
