Ella

Hello, I’m Ella… although my foster mum also calls me “Ella No Nek” and says I’m the best undercover agent around!

I’m 8 years young and full of personality. If you’re looking for a loyal companion, then look no further. You need protection? I’m your girl. I will follow you everywhere and make sure you’re never alone. I absolutely love being close to my humans, even if that means climbing all over you or sneaking under the covers without asking. You might not be comfortable… but I certainly will be!

I’m a playful girl with some very funny habits. You might hear me making some unusual little yelling noises, but that’s just me having the time of my life. I love playing with fluffy balls, especially taking them to the top of the stairs, batting them down, chasing after them and starting all over again. Sometimes I’ll even bring one to you to throw… but don’t expect me to fetch it back. If you want to play, you’ll have to join in properly!

When it comes to other cats, I can tolerate them, but I much prefer human company. I’ve been known to give the odd “high five” as they walk past, so I think I’d really thrive as the only cat in the home where I can have all the attention to myself.

I do have a dietary allergy, which means I need a fish-only diet. I’m allergic to chicken and possibly other meats, which can make me a bit itchy and give me a rather bare bottom, which we can all agree is not my best look. As long as my diet is managed properly, I stay happy and comfortable. Very occasionally I may need treatment if I have a flare up, but this is easily managed.

I’m looking for a home with children aged 8 and over, and I could potentially live with a calm dog with careful introductions. I would also love outdoor access once I’ve settled in so I can explore and burn off some of my playful energy.

If you’re looking for a quirky, affectionate and entertaining companion who will keep you company at all times, I might just be the perfect match for you.

Partially Vaccinated: The first vaccination has been completed. The second will need to be arranged and covered by the new owner.

We’re a foster-based charity, so each cat lives in a home environment before adoption. This helps us see how they cope with things like children, other cats, and dogs.

Because we don’t always know a cat’s full history (especially if they were a stray), our guidance is based on what we’ve observed in foster care. For example:

  • If a cat has lived happily with children, we’ll note they’re suitable for family homes.

  • If a cat is very timid and hasn’t been around children, we may suggest an adult-only home.

  • The same applies for cats and dogs — suitability depends on their behaviour and what we’ve seen first-hand.

As a foster-based rescue, when one cat is adopted their space is quickly filled by another in need. If a cat is adopted into an unsuitable home and has to return, it unsettles them and creates real challenges with our limited foster spaces.

We also believe that, where possible, cats should have safe access to the outdoors. Unless a cat is specifically listed as indoor-only, outdoor access is a requirement for adoption.

Our priority is always to match each cat with the home where they’ll feel safe, settled, and happy.
