Adopt-an-Animal Ambassador Program

At Ruffner, we strive to provide the best for our Animal Ambassadors. The cost of their care adds up – food, housing, enrichment, medication. Your contribution to the Adopt-an-Animal program will help with these costs.

Individuals

Do you have a favorite animal or one that you feel a special connection with at Ruffner? Sponsoring an Animal Ambassador is a great way to show your support while providing these animals with the items they need. You also have the option of donating the sponsorship as a gift to someone, or in memory of a loved one.
