I'm Ruckus, and I am a cute little kitten! I won’t ask for much- just some love, cuddles and lots of toys so I can run and play and be my kitten self. What my Foster Says About Me: 8/19 - Ruckus is an beautifully sweet kitten. He loves playing with the resident cats or is just as happy sharing cuddles with humans. He'll join you on your lap or desk while you work. He is also ready to keep himself occupied with his toys. He still has the sweetest baby kitten meow. If you allow him, he will likely come cuddle in your arm for a nap or overnight for slumber. He will do great in a home with other cats and also currently lives with a dog. Ruckus is very reserved at events. If you like to meet him in person outside of the event, please email his coordinator. He's located in Gaithersburg, MD. 7/5 - Ruckus has developed into an adorable sweet kitten. He has adapted well to our resident cats. He rubs up against each one to get affection. He loves playing chase and tag with them. He's even opened up to the adults in the home accepting chin scratches and the occasional pick up and cuddle. Ruckus is a very brave boy. He has learned to correct our dog if she gets to close in a way that makes him feel uncomfortable. However he's ready to approach her dog in order to smell her nose.
