Meet Ella, a resilient stray who was rescued alongside her two adorable kittens. Her kittens did end up finding homes but Ella needed time to adjust to being around people and being indoors. While she did come in as a semi-feral, she has taken well to being indoors at the shelter. Ella is quite a shy gal. She likes spending her time snuggled up in a cat tree, observing the room. She gets along very well with the other cats in her room. If you sit with her for a while, she does start to open up and likes being pet and making biscuits. Ella would thrive in a patient and quiet home that can allow her to slowly adjust and blossom into her true, sweet personality. If you are interested in Ella, you can fill out an application on our website www.daslakeoftheozarks.com. Primary Color: Black Tortoiseshell Age: 6yrs 6mths 1wks

More about this shelter
Dogwood Animal Shelter is a non-profit, no-kill shelter.
Since its infancy, compassionate, like-minded volunteers have been the driving force behind Dogwood Animal Shelter. Through auctions and sales, a handful of dedicated people raised enough money to build its first, albeit small facility and was established as a 501(c) 3 in 1976. It was filled beyond capacity almost immediately.
The shelter is funded entirely from donations and proceeds from their Dogwood Animal Shelter Thrift Store.
After years of saving, planning and busting at the seams with fur-babies, in 2005 it was time to build a new facility with their own in-house clinic! Under the direction of Dr. John Reinhold and coupled with a very dedicated and gifted team of Veterinarians and staff, Dogwood Animal Shelter continues to offer low cost spays and neuters to the public as well as services to their shelter buddies; services to approximately 2,000 dogs and cats yearly!
Dogwood Animal Shelter began their journey of being a successful no-kill shelter in 1997, and since then has saved over 40,000 lives!
