Rescue:

Esmeralda appeared on a rural property close to a small village. The couple have lived there
for many years and have never had cats show up before. Early in the spring they found a
friendly mother cat and her litter of kittens in the window well which looks into their basement
shop. Soon they were rescued, with the Dad cat, and brought into Pet Patrol care for medical
care and adoption. Now, just a few months later Esmeralda appeared on their back deck,
meowing at them and wanting attention and affection. They immediately started feeding her
and then checked her belly. Yup, she was nursing kittens, but they were nowhere in sight, and
after eating she would trot back into the woods. Now it was a waiting game and eventually
she brought her kittens (Ellington, Elyse, Elija and Ellis) to the feeding station and window well
as it was safe, and the kittens were not able to roam around without her in attendance. Soon,
they too were brought into Pet Patrol for care and have done very well.

Personality:

Elyse is a pretty little girl and the only one in her litter. Like her brothers she is very curious and
playful cat. She is interested in everything her people and siblings do and although she may
not get in on the wrestling matches, she is part of the gang when it comes to the kitten version
of the Indy 500 through the house, and bird watching from the window sill. She comes to you
when you arrive home looking for attention and affection, is easily picked up and cuddled. She
likes to sit on your lap or curl into your arm for a nap. Elyse is quite attached to her brother
Ellington and would like a forever home with him if possible. One that will welcome her into the
family and keep her safely indoors.
