Potato Spotlight of the week is *drumroll* 🥁🥁

Roxy!!

Age: Currently 9 weeks old

Size: Smallest one in the litter // We believe that she is a medium sized breed who will be about 30-50 pounds once fully grown.

Coloring: Black and brownish red

Spayed: Not yet

Vaccinated: DAPP and Dewormer (will be getting second round of DAPP, as well as first round of Bordetella and Lepto this Saturday)

Microchipped: Not yet

Personality: Roxy is the smallest of the the 8 but she is along one of the most courageous of the litter. She is not afraid to explore to areas but still milks that baby sister advantage. She loves to be around her people but she isn't the biggest fan of being held. She likes to have a steady hand under her or steady ground when exploring. Roxy is the only one out of the 8 that has a brownish red on her feet and legs. She loves to sleep with her head propped with either the water bowl or with her food bowl.

Availability: She will be available once she has been spayed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated.

Training Progress: She is currently working on learning her name and potty training.

We will also be working on basic commands and manners with her to better prepare her for your new home. If you are interested in adopting her please fill out an application at RuhRohRescue.org

Mumbles has been doing phenomenal while in our care and has really started to show us his true personality. He is the sweetest little boy who seems to always be purring. He also loves to cuddle and climb all over you. When he is in the mood he even loves to chase his wand toy. We can't wait to continue to see him grow into a big boy.

Earlier this week Ruh Roh Rescue was given a cat that needed help. She was found by a Good Samaritan who was waiting for their ride home from work when this little kitten came crawling out from under a car with what looked like a broken leg.

They were not able to take her to the vet or care for her so they started reaching out for someone who can take her or if they knew of any rescues with openings. Their friend who was helping them find someone to help reached out to Ruh Roh Rescue and we took her in.

We got her to the vet the next day who did confirm it was a big break and we would try a cast first to see if that works before going to amputation. Unfortunately by the end of the first week in the cast she started having some white gooey pus come out and we had to take her to the emergency room.

Her cast was creating sores or due to an unknown puncture wound that was not showing during initial exam we rushed her to an urgent vet to get a closer look. They were able to re-wrap it and we got in with her primary vet that upcoming Monday.

We are very sad to announce that unfortunately we had to say goodbye to Anchor Monday morning. Her broken leg was not healing as well as it should've been and her primary vet decided it would be best to move forward with the amputation. With how little she was and how many times she had already been sedated for bandage changes her body just could not handle the surgery. We knew this was a risk going to the surgery but was hoping for the best so that she could finally be in less pain. Anchor did get a very special dinner the night before of delectables, canned chicken, and churru which she absolutely loved. While we are extremely sad she is no longer with is we are just happy she is no longer in pain. Rest easy Anchor. You will be missed.

Congratulations to Stephan and Michael with their new baby Augustus! We are so happy for the whole family as they welcome Augustus.

We've already heard from Stephan that Augustus is doing amazing and is the best kitty and is super cuddly. We just knew Augustus would do great with them. We hope they have amazing memories to come and more fun adventures await.

Yesterday’s meet and greet went amazingly! We took Tot, Elliot, Fry, and Curly and they did so great! They were very sweet to everyone who stopped by to pet them and were very good with the children.

They also did great at desensitizing training and we hope we can bring more to this fabulous park for exposure and desensitization training. 👏🏻🙌🏻

Spud!!

She has been around cats since she was only a couple of days old but is still learning on how to correctly interact with them. She loves to chase after you and play until she is ready to pass out. Spud also loves to be around her people and will walk up to you and let out a small whimper if she feels you are not paying enough attention to her.

The puppies have officially started crate training and are not the biggest fans of it. 😅 They are doing so good with it though and do not have accidents too often usually only 1 or 2 pees a night which we consider a HUGE success.

Blue now know as Josephine (or Jo Mama) was adopted on Sunday! We are so excited for her since her owners seemed to instantly loved her crazy personality and liked that she was a shoulder cat. She will also now have a big sister named Beans. We are wishing Josephine several years of happiness with her new family.

This past Friday we added a new baby to our group. He is a 7 week old male Brown Tabby named Mumbles. He is currently only about a pound and is very underweight. He is also being treated for Ringworm at the moment while we focus getting some weight on him. Despite all of this he is still such a sweet kitten with the loudest purr when he's getting pets or cuddles. Mumbles got his name because he has the quietest meow and it sounds as if he is mumbling.

The potato patch are become mischievous little babies and are trying to play with their foster grandma's shoe laces. We are continuing to work on this as well as other manners before they go to their forever homes to help set them up for success.

09/04/2024

Nap time is definitely the best time around here. They get to rest, and so do we. 😂 Now that they're about 8 weeks old, it is getting hard to keep a constant eye on all of them.

09/03/2024

The potato patch puppies had a lot of fun getting to explore their foster grandma backyard for the first time. They got to smell so many new things and enjoyed the extra room to run around.

09/02/2024

We had to have one final photo shoot with Hamlet, Blue, and Augustus before they left for PetSmart today...their foster brother Toulouse got jealous though and joined Augustus for the final photo.

If you are looking to add a new kitten to your family any of these guys would be a perfect fit. Their applications can be found here. https://furryfriendsanimalrescue.org/adoptable-pets

Puppies are enjoying getting to go outside but they are not fans of this summer heat so during the day they're all business. Go potty and staright back to the porch. Morning and evening though they love to run around and play.

08/29/2024

Augustus and Blue have completed the last checkpoint before being ready for adoption. If you’re interested in one of these babies keep a close eye on our Facebook for when we release their petfinder links to put in an application.

Now that the pups are old enough to start potty training they've been learning how to ride in the wagon so that they can easily been transported out.

Augustus says the best way to sleep is to be stretched out and taking up as much room as possible. Where Blue thinks it's best to find a comfy blanket and curl up. Which do you think is best?

08/26/2024

Happy National Dog Day everyone! Here is a photo dump of our favorite moments with the puppies.

08/23/2024

The puppy's got yet another upgrade and are now in an even bigger playpen where they cab really stretch their legs and play. Next step is to get them using their potty pads more consistently

08/22/2024

All of the pups have recently started exploring a small part of our backyard...and they're not big fans of it but they'll get there!

08/21/2024

We recently got an update on Cyrus (used to be Raine) and he is doing amazing in his new home! He has become a velcro kitty to his new mom and she said he is either on her or nearby at all times. We are so happy for Cyrus and hope for him to continue to thrive in his new home.

08/20/2024

The pups are getting so big. They'll eat, play, and sleep. Starting to act more and more like real puppies everyday.

08/19/2024

Blue and Augustus are excited to announce that this time next week they will be getting spayed and neutered so that they will be ready for their new homes.
