Calico kittens & cats in Sartell, Minnesota

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Bonded to ZaraMeet Masala! Masala is a beautiful calico estimated to be around 1–2 years old. She came into rescue alongside her kitty friend, Zara. While Zara is the chatty social butterfly, Masala is the gentle soul of the pair — calm, observant, and quietly affectionate once she feels comfortable. Masala isn’t too fond of the hustle and bustle of “office life” — all that commotion just isn’t her cup of tea! She would prefer a peaceful, steady home where she can relax, settle into a routine, and enjoy her favorite pastime: quietly watching the world go by from a cozy perch. She has been around other cats and dogs, though she appreciates slow, gentle introductions as she adjusts. Once she trusts you, Masala’s sweet and loving nature truly shines — a perfect companion for someone who values a calm and loyal feline friend. Masala is from an owner surrender with sister Zara, and they must be adopted together   To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page.

We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 13, 2025, 7:48 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. MissGray’s story begins tucked away in a woodpile, where she was born into a small colony of outdoor cats. Thanks to a compassionate property owner, she and her feline family were part of a TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) effort, allowing them to live safely and peacefully in an insulated garage. Her days were filled with joy and companionship, especially with her mother, who was her closest friend. They hunted together, played chase, and curled up side by side, sharing warmth and love. But recently, MissGray’s mother didn’t return, leaving her to navigate the world on her own. But this brave cat has showed resilience. The property owner decided to bring MissGray indoors to see how she would adjust, and to everyone’s delight, she’s doing wonderfully! MissGray has excellent litter box manners and is learning to trust her new indoor world. She may be shy at first, but once she feels safe, she blossoms into a loving companion, purring, rubbing against your legs, and soaking up gentle pets. While she’s not quite a lap cat (yet!), she enjoys relaxing nearby and being part of your quiet moments. Her ideal forever home would include a calm feline friend to keep her company, just like her mom once did. With her incredibly soft coat and gentle soul, MissGray is ready to bring warmth and sweetness to a loving home.
