My Story
*This animal is located at our same-day adoption center partner, St. Louis Park PetSmart. Please contact this location prior to visiting to ensure this animal is still available. A paper adoption application will be completed on site so please do not submit an online adoption application. For more information on adopting from one of our adoption center partners, please visit our Adoption Center Animals page. Saint is a playful, energetic kitten with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This fun-loving little guy is always ready for action—whether he’s chasing toys, batting at strings, or zooming around the house in full kitten mode. He loooves pets and scratches, and once he gets to know you, he settles in as a sweet lap companion. Saint is also quite the conversationalist! He’s a chatty boy who isn’t shy about telling you when he wants attention—especially if he’s feeling a little lonely. He’ll happily keep you company and make sure you never feel alone. Saint is wonderfully friendly and does great with kids and other cats. He enjoys having playmates and would likely thrive in a home where he has plenty of interaction and stimulation. Because he’s still a kitten, Saint can be a bit squirmy when picked up or carried, but he’s becoming more comfortable with handling every day. With a little patience and continued gentle affection, he’ll only grow more confident. If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate, talkative companion who will fill your home with energy and love, Saint might just be your perfect match. Saint is from out of state.

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.
