Ruffles Collins is a 5 year old Mix-Breed in Independence, KY, who needs $2,000 for Mass Debulking and Dental Cleaning for Gingivitis.

Ruffles came into my life 5 years ago and they’ve been the best years of my life. Her mama, who is no longer with us, gave me the best gift and I’ve had her since the very moment she was born. She got her name, Ruffles, because she had the fluffiest and most ruffled coat as a kitten, and although her fur has changed as she’s gotten older her name is still so perfect to me.

Ruffles was seen at Noah’s Ark (Ft. Wright, Ky) on February 17, 2025. No pet parent wants to hear the C word, but I have to prepare for the fact that my girl may be battling cancer. We will have more answers soon, but regardless she will need surgery either way to remove the mass in question. (Its in her mouth and causing a lot of pain) We’re looking at close to $3,000 possibly and she needs help.

Ruffles is the glue to our family, she has 6 other siblings, one technically being her grandfather, great uncle, and half brother Angus. She is the sweetest girl you could ever meet, the most delicate and gentle baby. She loves to play with her siblings and she loves cuddling up with her mama because I’m her safe place. She’s quirky as can be and brings so much light and love to our lives.

This prognosis was completely unexpected and blindsided me, and I unfortunately am not in a place where I have an emergency fund to lean on. I don’t make a lot of money, but I want the very best for her. I just want to see her healthy and happy again. She deserves the world.
