Meet Jet, a handsome little black boy with a gentle nature, a curious mind, and some serious kitten speed! 🖤

Jet has been the most timid of his littermates, but he’s making positive progress every day as he learns that people can be trusted. He’s already come a long way—he’s no longer hiding under furniture or tucked away in corners, and his curiosity is starting to win out over his uncertainty.

Once Jet is awake, his playful side really shines. Give him a feather toy or anything he can chase, and suddenly this little nap-lover turns into a furry blur! He can race from room to room, run circles chasing his favorite toys, and seemingly appear out of nowhere thanks to his impressive speed and keen observation skills.

Jet loves being around his littermates and is still figuring out how much he enjoys human attention. He does best with space to explore, along with cozy hiding spots where he can retreat for a quiet nap—or use as the perfect launching point for a surprise pounce during playtime.

Jet is a gentle, independent little guy with a big playful personality waiting to emerge. A patient home with plenty of space, playtime, and opportunities to build trust will give this sweet boy the chance to truly blossom. 🐾

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.
