Description

2 months old Spayed female Requires a feline playmate in the home Not a good match for young children No known experience with dogs Requires socialization and experience reading cat body language Ruffles is an adorable kitten with lots of potential, but she needs a family that understands she won’t be ready to jump into lap-cat life right away. She’s undersocialized and still learning that people can be a source of safety, comfort, and fun. Helping Ruffles thrive means giving her a quiet space of her own and committing to multiple short socialization sessions every day over several weeks. Progress may start small, but those moments add up and can completely change her future. Without intentional socialization, she risks becoming a cat who constantly hides and misses out on the joys of being part of a family. Ruffles needs another friendly cat in the home who enjoys companionship and can help boost her confidence. Because she needs her pace respected, she is not a good match for young children. With patience and dedication, Ruffles can grow into a loving, playful companion.
