My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Billie, the most charming and attentive supervisor you'll ever have! This sweet girl loves to be involved in all household activities, whether it's offering a helpful "boop" to the vacuum or ensuring your dishes are sparkling clean. Billie thrives on knowing where her humans are, often meowing a greeting before gracefully meandering off once she's located you. When the day winds down, Billie is all about comfort on her own terms. She adores snuggling under covers, making her the perfect cozy companion for a quiet evening. Her love for observing the world extends to her favorite window perches, where she can enjoy a good view. Billie's calm demeanor shines through in her interactions with everyone. She's incredibly tolerant of young children and smaller dogs, even initiating playful romps, making her an ideal family pet. Food is always a favorite for Billie, as is playtime, especially with her sisters during their thrilling late-night zoomie sessions. She adores all toys and her non-reactive nature means she handles new situations with grace. Billie has consistently maintained excellent litter box and scratching post habits. If you're seeking a watchful, playful, and affectionate feline who knows how to be a part of the family, Billie is ready to bring her unique charm into your home! Billie was an owner 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.   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.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 4, 2025, 6:37 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Billie, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
