Elliandra

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hello there! Are you on the lookout for a special feline in your life? Not afraid of a little "project"? Do you have endless amounts of patience, and are willing to let said kitty come around on her own time? I just might have the purrrrect opportunity for you! My name is Elliandra and I'm looking for a special cat-loving home. I absolutely need to go into a home with another cat - preferably one who is confident and can show me the ropes. I think other cats are pretty darn spectacular and would love getting to know a new friend. As for humans, they still freak me out a little bit. I will most certainly hide the first few weeks. That would likely improve quickly if I have a nice, confident cat companion to model off of. I'm not aggressive at all, but I will hide. I do currently allow some petting by my humans so I think eventually with a good role model I can turn into a more snuggly cat you can adore for life. I was originally part of an outdoor cat colony but I was too friendly to go back to living life on the outs. I much prefer the comfort of being inside. Are you up for a challenge to win my heart over? Elliandra is from a reservation.

If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals. Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats' emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of "Single Kitten Syndrome" (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten's most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.
