My story

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

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



Hi, my name is Purrsephone because I love to purr on your chest! I am the sweetest and cutest cat you will ever meet. I am good with any humans, especially new ones. They are all my friends … kids and dogs (I am in love with my foster sister Luna) My foster parents say whoever gives me a forever home will be lucky to have me. I love to be around people. I just like to be around you even if it means I am just taking a little nap next to you. I love to play in general. Especially with my foster sister dog. I love making Halloween cat at her when she walks by or I like to hide around the corner and boop her, giggle and run away.  In fact,  watch this   video   of me and Luna!

Sometimes my sister is not in the mood to play with me, so I am self-sufficient and independent and I just go and play with all my toys. I love my little balls and little toys I have that I can chase around the house. I am funny and smart, but mostly curious about everything.  If you tell me that you do not like me to do that I will listen. My foster mom has over fifty plants and somehow, she is so good at having foster cats at her house because she teaches us not to play with them. I have listened to her. 

I love to look out the window and relax while I look at the world passing by. I like to take naps by my sister’s butt, make little biscuits on her fur, but I will also make biscuits on blankets because I love to lay on them. I’m pretty much perfect except for the fact that I sneeze because I have Calicivirus.  I know my disease sounds scary, but it’s really not! It just means sometimes I am a little congested, like a cold, but other than that, I am fine. My foster parents think it is so funny that I have snot rockets when I sneeze sometimes. I am not in pain, nor does it affect me in any other way.  

Here is a little more information about  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. Click here to learn more about Feline Calicivirus

Purrsephone is from a stray surrender. 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.
