Ruby Nugget Has The Grace Of A Dancer

Ruby Nugget is a cat looking for a new home—could it be yours?

PAWS (Protection of Animals in Wakefield Society) is an all-volunteer, non-profit animal welfare organization.

Mellow and sweet are the attributes that define me the best. Add to that my incredible body and I am a great cat in a beautiful package. That is me, Ruby Nugget, a sleek, shiny, black beauty with stunning eyes and sculpted Siamese-like physique.

I think I could be a dancer. I can stretch my spine and move in ways that are amazing and beautiful to watch (if I do say so myself).  I love to parade with my elegant tail curved right over the top of my back. Martha Graham, watch out!

Next to stretching and strutting, the thing I really love is catnip.  That stuff could be addictive.  Is it legal?  I hope so, because it makes me feel so great.  Give me a pinch and I will run and play like mad.  Of course, that tires me out and I will need a nap afterwards. Do you have a good place for me to snooze?  I would love a warm and soft bed. Could I sleep with you?  Or, maybe I could hang out on a shelf and watch over you? 

There is not much more to say. I am a pretty uncomplicated girl. I am easy to handle, easygoing and beautiful.  I think I could fit in just about anywhere and with anyone.  I just want you to feed me, love me, and dance with me. Are you game?  If so, please call. I want to go home with you as soon as possible.
