About Ripley

Ripley is a charming 2-year-old all-black domestic short-haired cat looking for a new home. So far, she has been a loyal companion, adapting well to life indoors and enjoying gentle attention from her past owner. She is spayed and comes fully vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to settle into her next loving environment. An affectionate yet independent spirit, Ripley enjoys lounging by the window, observing the world outside. While she gets along well with other cats and dogs, she may take some time to adjust and warm up to new furry friends. Sadly, her current home isn't a good match, as her owner has passed away and her new family’s pets are not as accommodating. Ripley has a gentle stomach and requires a specific type of kibble to keep her comfortable. She’s been known to get a little scared in chaotic situations, making a calm and understanding home ideal for her. She’s fully litter-trained and enjoys playing with everyday items like bottle caps. Ripley would thrive in a small family or a single-person household where she can receive the love she deserves. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
