Meet Grayson! 🐾 This sweet little guy may start out shy, but give him a little time, a couple of meals, and some gentle attention, and you’ll discover an incredibly affectionate kitten who is ready to snuggle and play!

Grayson does best with a slow introduction. He may occasionally hiss or retreat when someone first enters the room, but sit down with him for a while and his confidence starts to bloom. Before long, he’ll be rubbing against your legs, climbing into your lap, or reaching out with one slow little paw to ask for pets. He especially loves gentle scratches on his head and back and will happily settle in beside you for some cuddle time.

Once he’s comfortable, Grayson’s playful side really comes out. He loves balls, strings, and especially springs. In fact, his foster family regularly finds springs scattered everywhere—on the floor, in his bed, and even floating in his water dish. Apparently, no location is off-limits when you’re conducting serious spring-related research. 😂

Grayson is a typical kitten with a predictable schedule: play hard, eat, sleep, repeat! He’s most active at night and may occasionally meow or cry to let you know he’d like some attention. He uses his litter box well and eats nicely, although he has developed a slightly questionable hobby of tipping over his water dish.

Grayson would do best with someone who will let him take his time and build trust at his own pace. Once he knows he’s safe, this shy little guy transforms into an affectionate, playful companion who would love nothing more than to become your favorite nighttime snuggle buddy.

Give Grayson a little patience, a cozy spot, and plenty of springs, and you’ll have one very sweet cat who is ready to show you just how much love he has to give. ❤️

Want to adopt a kitten? 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.
 

NOTE ABOUT BREED LABELING: Visual breed identification of dogs is unreliable and usually inaccurate. So, for most of our adoptable pups, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog or puppy as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.

Please read the following general requirements carefully before submitting an adoption application. While this criteria is our typical standard, we understand all situations are unique! Don’t be discouraged if you don’t feel you meet one of these bullet points – feel free to submit an application anyway, so we can discuss your situation with you.

  • Applicants must be 18 years of age or older.
  • Submitted applications must be filled out fully and factually.
  • All applicants must reside in the state of Minnesota or its bordering states, unless a special exception has been made. Please email us at info@ruffstartrescue.org if you would like to discuss the potential for an out of state adoption.
  • Consider how you’ll manage an isolation period and be sure all existing pets are up-to-date on vaccinations and other routine health care before bringing a new pet home. An isolation period would be good for allowing that animal to settle in and learn the routine.
  • Please be aware of any rental/association or homeowners’ insurance restrictions you may have before applying. Such limits may include breed restrictions, number of pets allowed, weight requirements, etc.
  • All adopted animals must live indoors with their families and always be monitored closely when outdoors for their safety (with the exception of working cats).
  • We do not allow any medically-unnecessary surgical procedures, such as declawing; defanging; debarking; or cropping/docking (of tails or ears) to be conducted on any animal adopted from our rescue.
