Eloise (Semi-social)
Hello! My name is Eloise (Semi-social)!
Here’s what my friends at Española Humane say about me:
- Meet Eloise, a charming black and white medium-haired cat with a heart of gold! This sweet girl has a gentle demeanor and a unique way of expressing her feelings-when she's feeling a bit anxious, she'll bury her face in your arm, seeking comfort. Eloise loves to hide in cozy boxes, where she feels safe, and while she might hiss when startled, she's never swatted or bitten any of her caretakers.
Eloise came to us as a devoted mama cat, lovingly caring for her four kittens until they were ready to find their forever homes. Although her time in our care has been stressful, leading her to overgroom and lose some fur on her back, her resilience shines through. With patience and love, Eloise is learning to trust again.
While she hasn't had much interaction with other cats due to her shy nature, her nurturing instincts suggest she could adapt well to a multi-cat household. If you're looking for a sweet companion who needs a little extra TLC, Eloise might just be the perfect fit!
If you’re interested in adopting me, fill out an application to get a jump start on the process! We don’t offer holds on shelter pets, so c’mon in to meet and greet to decide if you’ve met your match. Applications for pets in foster care, at Ojo Santa Fe, or offsite in other programs will be reviewed by staff before appointments are scheduled.

Española Humane
Española Humane offers free services and innovative programs to help suffering pets in underserved communities. For over three decades, we have managed an open-door shelter that welcomes every animal without charge because we believe the most humane approach is to never turn away an animal in need. Spay/neuter access is critical to our mission, and our clinic is completely free to pets in Española, Rio Arriba County, and the surrounding Pueblos.
We’re determined to make a lasting difference and to squeeze every penny out of each donated dollar: 89% of your gift goes directly to the animals.
Shelter & Adoptions
Spay Neuter Clinic
Become a foster superhero.
Fostering can be as easy as having a litter of young ones in a spare bathroom before they go to an adoption event. Or, maybe you’d like an adult to spend time with your family, just to see how that pet transforms with a little love and attention. We promise it’ll be rewarding.
Join our team of volunteers
Volunteers help every facet of our work, from support at the shelter to helping with adoption events to assistance with animal transport. We provide the training and the welcoming environment. Meet new people, learn new skills, and feel good about helping animals.
Need help finding your pet?
80% of pets are found within a mile of where they went missing. Start searching right away and use printed flyers so people can call you with sightings. An ID tag or microchip will make it a lot easier to find your pet. Hopefully, they’ve already been found and are at our shelter.
