Well, my mom thinks I'm pretty special. I think I look like a lot of other cats, but she says, "Heck no, cutie pie. You're da bomb." She told me the day she met me at the shelter she couldn't believe how friendly I was 'cause I was rubbing on everyone and purring like a Mac truck. So she scooped me and my sister up (even though my sister hid terrified under a chair in the furthest corner of the room from us!) and off we went to our new home. At first she said I was a little "stinker." Whatever that means! She said the human teenagers weren't allowed drinks without lids 'cause I would just whack them off any surface. I don't know why it was such a big deal...mom would always clean it up anyways. After a few rounds of scratched up furniture and lots and lots of toilet paper on the floor, she said I finally chillaxed...she uses weird words.

 

Then one day a stray kitty came around and mom started called him Rudy 'cause he looked like the male version of me and was super chill too. She said there's just something special about us tabbies. Rudy and I became friends and would hang out on the deck and sunbathe together. Mom was surprised how I just let him hang since most kitties would chase him away. I thought that was weird too, cause why wouldn't you want friends?​

 

My sister and I now live with a new cat that my mom used to feed on our deck. She calls him Blue Kitty, now Blue. She had grabbed him off the deck on dad's birthday and put him in our laundry room for three weeks and only let us see him through the door. Dad said Blue was NOT his birthday gift. After a while she let him out and he took FOREVER to leave the threshold of the laundry room. Now we're all friends! Well, I know I'm his friend, can't I say much about my sister. Mom said she's a tortie and doesn't need friends? 

 

Then mom LOST HER MIND and adopted two puppies in one year! They try to chase me but I'm too smart for them...I just hang out and they lick my face and ears a lot. Mom says she had no idea when she named me Ruby how accurate it would become. She says I am as unique as a gem! She told me that every time she looks at our precious faces she can't stop thinking about all the other animals that need forever homes. So, she set out to form an animal rescue to save more homeless animals just like me and my four siblings! GO MOM!
