Meet Rukus, a handsome grey and white tabby whose name suggests mischief, but whose personality is much more distinguished scholar than rowdy troublemaker. His previous owner described him as “half human” and “a little professor,” and one look at his thoughtful face makes it easy to understand why.

Rukus is remarkably attentive and always seems to be pondering something important. Speak to him and he will listen closely, looking as though he understands every word and is carefully considering his response. He may not hold office hours, but he is always available for a thoughtful conversation, a cozy study session or a little one-on-one attention.

Sweet, intelligent and wonderfully engaging, Rukus is looking for someone who will appreciate his sensitive soul and delightfully human ways. Adopt this charming professor and you will gain a devoted companion who will listen to all your stories, contemplate life’s biggest questions and quietly supervise everything you do.
