Description:
Hi! My name is Ruby, and I am told I am even more lovely than the gemstone. I have been living at House of Dreams since 2015. I adore people and will show it by purring and giving head butts. I am gentle and confident and love head scratches and pets. I appreciate attention, and I especially love catnip toys!
In my younger days, I got into it with a raccoon and have some minor nerve damage to show for it. I have no problems getting around or doing normal cat things, but I do have a distinctive walk. I’m told my little wiggle makes me unique. Sometimes people see my tail flick about and think that I am angry when I’m actually very happy, but once they spend time with me they see how easy-going I am. I get a little nervous when new people pick me up, but I am not at all aggressive. I get along with other gentle cats, but I prefer the company of humans. I am strictly an indoor kitty and have excellent hygiene and manners.
I do not currently have any special medical needs. When I arrived at House of Dreams, I had some bald patches where I was over-grooming. The vet thinks this might have been due to a flea allergy or possibly to stress. The shelter humans make sure the other cats and I are flea-free and comfortable. My fur has grown back in nicely, and I don’t feel the need to pull on it anymore!
I recently heard that black cats are often the last to be adopted. That’s not true, is it? Will you be the one to make my dream of a forever home come true? I have so much love to give!
