My story

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

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



Meet Woodbridge: A Resilient Rescue Cat

Woodbridge is a sweet and loving domestic medium-haired gray cat, estimated to be around 2 years old. His journey to safety was a difficult one—he was found as a stray with a bone lodged in his mouth, looking very thin and with matted fur. After a trip to the vet, the bone was safely removed, and it was discovered that he had some sores in his mouth, which are now being treated by the vet team.

Woodbridge has been a bit of a picky eater, likely due to the discomfort from his mouth sores, but he's finally found a food he loves: cut-up chicken! He can't get enough of it and even enjoys his lil soups, though chicken is his new favorite. He once tried pizza, but when the chicken came, he devoured it eagerly, proving just how much he loves his tasty meals.

Despite his rough past, Woodbridge is a gentle and affectionate soul. He adores the company of humans and loves to lounge in high spots, such as window sills or high perches, where he can watch the world go by in comfort. He's a survivor and a snuggler, and he can't wait to find his forever home, where he can share all his love and enjoy his favorite chicken treats.

One thing you should know about me is that I have been diagnosed with Feline Calicivirus. This is a viral disease common in large unvaccinated groups of cats. Calicivirus affects a cat's immune system and can cause upper respiratory infections and oral infections. Due to this, I will need to be adopted into a home without other kitties or a home with fully vaccinated adult cats . 

 

I just joined my foster family and we are still getting acquainted with one another. Once they learn more about me, they will add more information here!

Woodbridge is from a local impound. 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.

To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page.

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.
