Bella

Bella is a breathtaking calico girl with a story that stays with you long after you hear it. She is only three years old, yet she has already endured more than most cats ever should. Bella is a true rescue — a survivor through every struggle she has faced.<br/><br/>She was rescued in the middle of a thunderstorm, her small body curled over her one and only kitten, shielding her baby from the rain as she lay in the leaves. Even in fear and exhaustion, Bella chose protection over herself.<br/><br/>Shortly after coming into rescue, Bella’s body stopped producing milk. Her kitten had to be rushed to a tube feeder to survive. Though her baby lived, Bella’s heart quietly broke. She became withdrawn and sad — yet something beautiful emerged from her pain. Bella became fiercely protective of every kitten and young cat that entered the rescue, as if vowing no baby would ever feel unsafe again.<br/><br/>Bella wants love. She truly does. She enjoys being petted and seeks affection, but when she becomes overstimulated, she may shy away or gently bat a hand — not out of meanness, but out of fear and uncertainty. Bella speaks “cat language” fluently, and she needs a human who understands it too.<br/><br/>She is perfect with the litter box, using any kind of litter without issue. Bella also has a soft spot for dogs and absolutely adores the rescue’s mini poodle, showing us that she has room in her heart for gentle animal companions.<br/><br/>We are searching for a very special adopter 🙏🏻— someone patient, kind, and willing to let Bella set the pace. Someone who understands that trust is earned, not demanded. Bella does not belong in a barn. She shows us more every day that she wants human connection, reassurance, and safety. She just needs to believe it will last.<br/><br/>If you truly want to rescue — not just adopt — and change a cat’s life forever, Bella is the one. She deserves a second chance at a forever filled with patience, compassion, and quiet love. 🖤<br/><br/>Location: Copley Ohio
