Pet of the Week

Ellie

1 year old Spayed Female

Domestic medium hair

 

Ellie is well aware that she's a very pretty girl and loves when people reinforce that by giving her lots of love.  She's a very social critter that can certainly entertain herself with almost any toy and would enjoy a home where she can exercise regularly.  She gets along with other cats and would prefer a home with children 10+.
