Hello there, I`m Elsie. Not long ago, I wandered into a neighborhood—hungry, alone, and unsure of where to turn. Thankfully, a kind-hearted soul noticed me and began leaving out food, offering the first glimmer of hope I`d felt in a long time. I`m a black and white beauty, estimated to be around five years old. After arriving at Animal Ark, I surprised everyone by giving birth to four precious kittens: Emri, Ellis, Everest, and Elton. They`ve grown up strong and independent, and now it`s my turn to embrace a new chapter. With my mothering days behind me, I`m ready to rediscover my playful side and find a forever home filled with love, cozy places to nap, delicious meals, and toys galore. Because I spent so much time surviving on my own, I’d thrive best in a peaceful home without other cats or dogs—just me and my humans, enjoying life together. If you believe in second chances and the magic of new beginnings, come meet me at the shelter. I’ve been waiting for someone just like you.
