Ruby is the Animal Care & Adoption Center's longest resident. She deserves a loving, furever home. She’s curious, playful, easy-going, & friendly. She does well on short walks & riding in a car & is house trained. She would do best in a home where she is the only pet. Contact the ACAC to adopt Ruby!
