Elise is a playful and affectionate cat with a determined nature. She and her brother Earl were born in August 2023. They were both born with heart murmurs, so when their litter mates got adopted, they had to stay back for some additional veterinary care. In January 2024 Elise underwent a surgery that
involved putting a balloon in her heart. After receiving an echocardiogram in May 2024, Earl and Elise received the wonderful news that their heart functioning has improved and they’re expected to live long, normal lives, just with some additional veterinary appointments (more details below).
Earl and Elise have developed a very close bond, so they’re looking for a forever home that will take them both. They love to run around and play together. Even though Earl is about twice as big as his sister, he’s very gentle with her. When they wrestle together, he’ll often lay on his back and let her repeatedly pounce on him. They both enjoy sitting near windows and watching the outside world go by.
During their down time they love to snuggle up and groom each other.
Even though Earl and Elise have a strong bond with each other, they both have plenty of love to give those around them. They like to sit near their foster mom while she’s working from home or watching movies, and they love being pet. Perhaps their most endearing quality is how sensitive they are to other animals. They lived with a very scared adult foster cat for a few months. Right off the bat Earl and his sister took turns keeping the cat company in her hiding place. Over time they helped her to feel comfortable in the human world, and they even taught her how to play with toys and with other cats. Earl and his sister have also lived with a small, shy dog. Whenever their canine companion comes back
from a walk, they rush to the door to give him kisses and nuzzles. They both love to snuggle up with him when it’s time for a nap.
Earl and Elise will make a great addition to a family with or without other pets. As noted above, they will have some additional veterinary costs that potential adopters should be aware of. Much more detail can be provided upon request, but in short, both Earl and Elise are recommended to have a follow up
echocardiogram in the next year. These appointments cost roughly $300-$600 per cat. Depending on the outcome, it could be recommended that these appointments be repeated annually. In addition, Elise takes an oral heart medication twice per day, and this costs about $25 per month. She’s expected
to be on this medication at least until her next echocardiogram, and possibly longer.
All cats have had a vet exam, are up to date on vaccinations, have been given a dewormer and treated for fleas and ear mites if needed. Earl and Elise have been spayed/neutered and microchipped. They have tested negative for FIV/FELV. If you are interested in meeting Earl and Elise, please go to our website and fill out a cat application.
