Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Ellie is kind of a big deal...

To sum her up, Ellie Elevator's favorite toy is her pickle toy, which says "I'm kind of a big dill..." and that couldn't be closer to the truth! Ellie is the perfect blend of playful, cute, and snuggly. Since she's been in foster care, we can't tell what she loves more, play-hunting with her favorite pickle or lamb toy or snuggling up next to humans for a long nap.

Another one of Ellie's beloved quirks is that she knows how to play fetch and she likes hide and go seek! Given this, Miss Elles would do best in a bigger space where she has tons of room to rip around and get all of her kitten energy out. But don't be alarmed, she loves a long snooze at the window! And because of Ellie's playful energy, we think she would do best in a home with another cat friend (so she can teach your fur baby hide and seek, duh!) and in a home with older teens and adults where she has a lot of stimulation and attention.

Whenever Ellie meets someone new, she instantly makes them her best friend. She loves to give tons of head buts and will definitely recruit you for a game of tag or to get cozy on the couch. Come and meet this wonderful baby, Ellie's got it all!!!
