About Ripley

Introducing Ripley! This sweet girl was trapped last March during a TNR effort, along with her friends from a colony. Although they were all cared for by a kind man, Ripley quickly won over her foster mom, who knew that returning her to the outdoors wasn’t an option. Ripley has adapted well to indoor life, even becoming a comfort to her more timid foster sister, Gem. The two enjoy cuddling and playing together. While Ripley may take her time settling into a new home, she has made great strides in her foster environment. In smaller spaces, she thrives on gentle pets, but in larger areas, she tends to observe from a distance until she feels safe. Lately, Ripley has started to engage more with her foster parents, eagerly following them around for treats like churu. With some patience, she could flourish in a loving home. Ripley would do well with respectful dogs and older children who understand her needs. Ideally, she’d love to be adopted with her best friend Gem. Their bond is special, and they would bring joy to any home. Ripley has been spayed, vaccinated, and is ready for her forever family. Apply to adopt her (and Gem?) today!
