About this Cat
*This animal is a part of our “Seniors for Seniors” program where we offer senior adopters an opportunity to adopt an eligible pet at a discounted fee.* To Layla—our quiet little queen with the heart of an old soul. She may take her time to trust you, but once she does, it’s like being let into a secret garden. Her purr is soft, steady, and healing—a gentle soundtrack to peaceful moments. She's not one to demand attention, but instead offers it as a gift once you've earned her trust. Layla is the picture of grace and elegance. Always polite, always box trained, and never one to cause a fuss. She’s a master of hide-and-seek, clever and observant, finding little corners to tuck herself into when the world feels too loud. She’s shy, yes—but so very sweet. The kind of soul that blooms slowly, quietly, and beautifully. After four weeks of patience, she gave her first cuddles—and let me tell you, it was worth every moment. Her love language? Back pets and butt scratches that send her up onto her little tiptoes in the most endearing way you’ve ever seen. Layla may not be the life of the party, but she is the warmth at its heart. The calm presence, the soft purr, the subtle joy. She would thrive in a peaceful, older household—somewhere her quiet magic can truly shine. So here’s to Layla—the wise, gentle spirit who reminds us that the best things in life are worth waiting for. Cheers to patience, purrs, and tiptoe cuddles. Layla is from an owner surrender. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.

Adopt Layla and Receive Layla's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Layla's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Layla's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Layla, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Layla's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Layla was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Layla’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Layla’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Layla’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
