Story

Sneezy is a sweet, playful little girl who is a bit shy. She is bonded with her sister, Happy, and they must be adopted together. Sneezy is a bit shy and will take some time to warm up. She needs a patient adopter and a calm home that will respect her quieter demeanor and allow her to feel safe. Once she warms up to you, she is very affectionate and playful. Her foster mom writes, " It will take some time for them to warm up to you but when they do they will love you. They love running around and playing and they love to cuddle with you on the bed. Laying with me and purrrring is their favorite thing 🩷🩷" The total adoption fee for Happy and Sneezy together is $500.

Madonna (Spirit Kitten)

Domestic Longhair

Female, 1 yr 1 mo

Springfield, MA

Story

We looked outside our kitchen window one afternoon a couple of months ago to find this gorgeous little floof sunning herself on the hood of our car. We put out food for ferals (and get them fixed!) but we had never seen her before. Upon investigation, she was clearly feral but young enough that we could trap her and bring her inside. Madonna is what is known as a Spirit Cat: she was born outside and had no human contact in her critical first two months, leaving her wary of humans. She is not aggressive and is tolerant of human company, frequently climbing on the bed with me or approaching me curiously. However, she is skittish around people, does not like to be approached, and will probably never be a lap cat. She absolutely loves other cats and would be a great companion for a young playful cat or kitten who is in need of a friend. She would love to find a home with her friend Noel, also a Spirit Cat, and we would offer a discounted adoption fee to an adopter willing to take them together. However, Madonna would do well in any calm, patient home with a playful cat and without young children. She would be perfect for someone who already has an affectionate lap cat who is lonely and looking for another cat to play with. Madonna is so beautiful that simply admiring her from a distance makes us all feel honored! She is a long-haired beauty who has some Ragdoll features. May 18, 2025, 8:58 pm

Story

Noel is what is known as a "Spirit Cat." This means that she was born outdoors and did not receive human contact in her first 2 crucial months of life, making her wary of people. She is playful, curious, and comfortable in a house but she may never be a lap cat. Seh like to jump up on her foster mom's bed while her foster mom reads before bed but will not yet let any people touch her willingly. Noel loves other cats and needs a cat companion in her home. She would love to be adopted with her friend Madonna, another Spirit Cat in her foster home, and we would offer a discount for adopting both together. However, Noel would do well in any home with a young, playful cat (she really loves her foster home's pet cat and cuddles with him whenever she has the chance). Noel would be great for a home with a cat who is lonely and in need of a friend, with adopters who are looking for a low-maintenance cat who needs very little from humans. Noel is exceptionally beautiful, with a very unique and pretty swirly pattern. May 19, 2025, 5:24 pm

Special Needs

Story

Sweet Simba needs a special adopter. Simba has a significant heart defect and likely will only live a few more years at most. It is impossible to know when his heart will be unable to continue and he could only have a few months of life left. He is on medication twice daily, which he takes mixed into his food. He is very good-natured and affectionate and really deserves a home to make his short life his best life. He is currently in foster care but he does not do well with other cats and so has to spend all his time in a room separate from the other cats in his home. He is comfortable and well-cared-for, but we really want him to be able to live in a home where he can explore at will, lay in his human's lap, and sleep on a cozy bed or couch. Ideally, he would like to be an only cat, but we would consider a home with one other mellow cat. Simba is affectionate, friendly, easy-going, and loving- just a great pet all around. We know it's asking a lot for someone to take on a cat knowing they might lose him in a short time, but we are hopeful that someone will understand the value in giving a very deserving cat a loving home, even if only for a short time. This type of kindness not only helps the cat, but also deepens our own souls and adds richness and meaning to our lives. Ella's Feline Rescue Mission will pay for all Simba's ongoing cardiac care (adopter will be responsible for routine wellness exams and minor illnesses) and will provide respite care when an adopter travels and can't do his daily meds.
