Meet Rutha. If you're looking for a cat with a gentle heart and an easygoing personality, Rutha may be your perfect match. She is a beautiful young calico with a long, graceful body and an extra-long tail that gives her an elegant look. She's in that lanky teenage stage of life, so she's lean now but will likely fill out as she matures. What makes Rutha truly special is her temperament. She genuinely loves people and doesn't know a stranger. She seeks out affection, happily accepts pets, and enjoys simply being wherever her people are. Whether she's curled up beside you while you read or stretched across your lap for a nap, she's happiest sharing life with her family. Rutha has a wonderful balance of playful curiosity and peaceful companionship. She enjoys exploring her surroundings, chasing toys, and satisfying her curiosity, but she's equally content to settle down for a long afternoon nap. She's not demanding—she simply loves being near her favorite humans. She also gets along well with other cats.Rutha is polite and respectful with feline friends, greeting them calmly without being pushy or overly interested. She would likely do well as either an only cat receiving lots of attention or in a home with another friendly cat. Like any young cat, Rutha does have one little quirk: she's an enthusiastic explorer! If an exterior door opens, her curiosity may tempt her to sneak outside, so her new family will need to be mindful about keeping doors closed and watching their step. This means she may not be the perfect candidate for a family with young kids who may ope the door and hold it open only to have her dash out and get lost. She also loves following her people from room to room, so don't be surprised if she's quietly at your feet, simply wanting to be part of whatever you're doing. Rutha has adjusted beautifully in her foster home, but like any cat, she'll thrive with a family who gives her a calm environment and a little patience as she settles into her new surroundings. If you're looking for a sweet, affectionate companion who will happily share your quiet moments, greet you with love, and become your little shadow, Rutha is ready to find her forever home.All cats are spayed, neutered, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccines, FELV/FIV tested, microchipped, have received multiple rounds of dewormer and are up-to-date on flea preventative.
