“Ruby” is in need of a loving family to give her a home!
Why not make her a member of your family?
“Ruby”, a domestic shorthaired cat, is the WJLE/DeKalb Animal Shelter featured “Pet of the Week”.
“Ruby is our longest cat resident at the shelter. She is a year and a half old and has been spayed. Ruby is super cuddly and definitely a lap cat. She loves people including kids and other cats. Ruby is an all around good cat,” said Shelter Director Emmaly Bennett.
“If you are interested go to our website at https://www.dekalbanimalshelter.com/ and look for Ruby under the adoptable pet tab. Her adoption fee is $60. Fill out that application and we will call you for an appointment to come in and meet her,” said Bennett.
