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.

Adopt a Cat

We’ve got plenty of loving, entertaining purr factories. And a few cats who may hide, but will adore you when no one else is around. Click on a face below to learn more about that cat. If the floof captures your heart, fill out an adoption application so we know you’re interested in meeting each other.

No one? Well, check back with us because new cats arrive every day.

More Questions?

  • How much does it cost to adopt a pet?

    Puppies and kittens range from $10 to $50. Adults over 6 months are usually free. Adoption fees will be higher for certain breeds and in some locations. For example, Ojo Santa Fe puppies are typically $150. 

  • How do my adoption fees help the shelter?

    Adoption fees help with medical care, food, and shelter for all animals, not just the youngest or cutest. Most of that expense is paid by our fundraising efforts.

  • How can I prepare my home for adoption?

    It depends on your floof’s age and whether they’re a dog or cat. Check out our tips for preparing your home for your new pet. We provide you with a “starter kit” of a collar, pet food and treats.

    Also learn about the 3-3-3 rule. It takes a new pet 3 days to calm down, 3 weeks to adapt to your family, and 3 months to bond and build trust. Don’t worry. We’ll have more details and other tips in your adoption package. 

  • How do I become a foster parent?

    It’s simple. Start by filling out a foster application and our team will contact you. 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.
