My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.



Hi there, I'm Maggie — Also known as Mama Maggie.  I came into rescue with my 4 kittens from an owner surrender. I mostly lived outside on the surrender's property and they would feed me and give me some pets, but I would spend the majority of my time roaming the outdoors.  I have had multiple litters in the last year and I'm ready to not be pregnant. I am a very good mama to my rambunctious crew, showing lots of love and patience with them.  That shows you how sweet of a girl I am. I am very laid back and appreciate human company.  I will approach you and give a soft meow when I see you and will rub up against your legs for some attention.  I enjoy pets and laying next to you, but not quite ready for lap napping.  I am ok with being held by adults and older children for a shorter period of time but prefer to just be near you.  If you listen quietly, you will hear a really soft purr. My favorite activity is looking out the window and reminiscing about my past life outside, however I am enjoying the good life of living indoors. I really enjoy observing my surroundings. I'm not into playing with toys or running around, but as I learn to get more comfortable that could change. There are two children in the home with me (12 yrs and 7yrs old) and I enjoy their company as well. 

I've done great with my litterbox and have never had an accident. I'm not a fan of dogs right now, but possibly with time and slow intros I could get there.  Maggie's presence brings warmth and peacefulness to any room. 

Maggie is from an owner surrender with her 4 kittens. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Ruff Start Rescue is a foster-based rescue, meaning no animals are available at the Princeton, MN office for public viewing or adoption. All animals in our care reside in foster homes with few special exceptions for our adoption center animals, who are housed at our partnering facilities temporarily before adoption. To meet a Ruff Starter you may be interested in adopting, please submit an adoption application on our website.

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.
