ruby

Meet Ruby, the dilute tortie gal. Ruby came to the Shelter as an owner surrender after her previous guardian’s household set up just wasn’t the right fit. Ruby is looking for daily mental and physical stimulation in her next home which will include walks on her harness and leash outside. Ruby really enjoys being outside but should not be left outside unattended to the unsafe nature it could pose to herself (and to wildlife). Another way to meet Ruby’s interest in being outside but keep her safe is to have a catio set up where Ruby could access the outdoors in a safe, enriching way. Ruby has not lived with other animals but a home with other animals may be a fit with a slow, thoughtful introduction. She used her litterbox reliably in her last home and was described as very friendly.Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
