Hi! My name is Ella and here is a little more about me:
My Journey I come from a colony/community cat background and am still learning about the comforts of indoor life. Each day, I become a little more confident as I settle into a safe, calm environment and discover what it means to truly relax.
My Social Life I’m still figuring out how I feel about other animals and children. My current foster home is quiet and peaceful, without other cats, dogs, or kids, so I haven’t had the chance to show my preferences yet. Because of this, I may do best in a calm home where introductions—if any—can happen slowly and thoughtfully, allowing me to build confidence at my own pace.
My Personality I’m a gentle little purr machine with a thoughtful, observant nature. I can be a bit timid at first and appreciate having a safe spot where I can retreat and relax. Once I feel secure, my sweet and affectionate side really shines. I have a playful streak that tends to come out in the evenings, and I’m surprisingly easygoing—I don’t even mind having my paws touched or my nails trimmed.
I Enjoy… Head scratches and face rubs (I’ll happily press my face into your hand for more) Interactive toys like string and feather wands Evening play sessions when I feel most confident Quiet environments where I can relax, explore, and enjoy your company
I’m Not a Fan Of… Loud noises and sudden activity can make me anxious or skittish. I do best in calm, predictable spaces that help me feel safe and secure.
What Makes Me Special I have a soft gray coat and beautiful, striking green eyes that perfectly match my gentle and thoughtful personality.
My Perfect Home I would thrive in a quiet, patient home with someone who understands that trust and love can take a little time. I may be shy at first, but once I warm up, I enjoy simply being near my person and knowing I’m safe and cared for.

More about this rescue
Smittens isn’t just another cat rescue.
We are a coalition of volunteers with a spay/neuter mission, dedicated to helping both stray and owned animals in the greater San Diego area get fixed, receive veterinary care, and whatever else they may need! Smittens works with shelters and other rescues to route cats to proper vet care and eventual homes, and we take in stray cats who need help getting off the street. We also support TNR for feral cats, and assist cat and dog owners to get their own pets fixed and vaccinated at a low cost.
