Sookie, domestic shorthair
Sookie is a winsome female domestic shorthair cat currently residing at Ellen M. Gifford Sheltering Home.
She is vaccinated and spayed.
Notes from Sookie's caretakers:
Sookie is an 8 year-old female who was surrendered after many years in a home and feels a little insecure at the shelter. She wants to make friends with people, but is a little wary and sometimes swats if approached in the wrong way. She needs an experienced cat owner who can understand her behavior and help her feel secure again.

Eloise, domestic shorthair
Eloise is a female domestic shorthair cat being kept at Ellen M. Gifford Sheltering Home.
She's been vaccinated and spayed.
Eloise's current caretakers say:
Eloise is a goofy, smart and flirty girl looking for an experienced cat owner to take her home. She can be a little bit sassy at the shelter, because she is scared of the other cats and gets overwhelmed by all the activity.

Shiloh, domestic shorthair
Shiloh is a sweet female domestic shorthair cat being cared for at Ellen M. Gifford Sheltering Home.
She is already spayed and vaccinated.
Here's what Shiloh's friends at Ellen M. Gifford Sheltering Home think of her:
Complex and enigmatic are the two words to describe Shiloh. But complex cats teach us about earning trust. She's a lady who voices her opinions, solicits love on her terms, and keeps her staff in line.

Savory, domestic shorthair
Savory is a charming female domestic shorthair cat in the care of Ellen M. Gifford Sheltering Home.
She's spayed, and she has all her shots.
Savory's current caretakers say:
Savory can also be sweet. A shy girl, Savory will make an appearance when she feels trusting. An experienced adopter, someone who knows the intricacies of cat behavior, would be perfect for her.

Sage, domestic shorthair
Sage is a darling female domestic shorthair cat in the care of Ellen M. Gifford Sheltering Home.
She has been vaccinated and spayed.
Sage's current caretakers say:
Sage is an athletic and bright-eyed girl. Sage often seeks out the company of other cats and would make a good companion with one of her feline friends. We think Sage will blossom in a patient home where she can get acclimated at her own pace.
