Adoption Fee: $150

Hi, I’m Sonny! I was left all by myself in my home, and I’m not sure why, because my foster mom says I’m just a sweet old gentleman. When you get home from work I’ll be there to greet you, and it doesn’t take much to activate my “purr machine”! I really like being pet. I also love food! In fact, the vet says I have something called hyperthyroidism? But it doesn’t bother me much. My foster mom just feeds me special prescription food and as of right now I don’t need any medication! It’s not nearly as scary as it sounds. I really just want to be pet by you and find a quiet home where I can spend the rest of my life. I also like food. Did I mention that? Sonny would do best in a home with no other cats, so if you’re currently an empty-nester looking for a lot of love in a little furry body, Sonny will be your forever companion. You can read more about hyperthyroidism here: https://pets.webmd.com/cats/guide/cat-hyperthyroidism#1 Sonny is currently on prescription food, and it's our hope that this will be enough to control his condition. If not, there's a simple medication for this so we have no doubt that he has a lot of good years left in him. He will make a faithful friend and a wonderful feline companion.

An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal.

More about this rescue

Mission Statement
Ruff Start Rescue is dedicated to saving the lives of at-risk animals. We also collaborate, communicate, and educate about the importance of animal rescue and welfare.

Vision Statement
We strive for a world where every companion animal has a safe and loving forever home.

Who We Are & How We Do It
We are a foster home-based Non-Profit 501c3, No-Kill dog and cat rescue based in Central Minnesota. We rescue stray, neglected, abandoned, and surrendered dogs and cats as well as ferrets, guinea pigs, rabbits, and other critters. We work very hard to place them in new loving homes.

We operate largely through volunteers and donations, relying on social media to stay connected. The more than 600 volunteers working with the rescue transport animals, serve as foster families, coordinate adoptions and much more. Without them and their countless hours of service, Ruff Start Rescue could not exist.


Foster-based by Choice
We do not have a shelter. We believe a home environment is far more desirable than a shelter or kennel. We rely exclusively on volunteers to provide foster homes for rescued pets until they find their forever homes.


We Can't Take Every Animal
Because we don’t have a shelter, we can only take a new animal when we have a vacant foster home for the pet to live in while they await their forever home. Sadly, we are not able to assist every animal that crosses our path. There are just too many dogs and cats out there that need help. We promise to do our very best to help find every pet his or her forever home.
