Cheese Sisters: Ella (16548) Domestic Short Hair Washington, DC

Female, DSH, 6 months old

Personality: friendly, shy, snuggly

Ella is a soft-spoken beauty who's learning to trust and love at her own pace. Though she's shy at first, once she feels safe, she'll happily curl up next to you for hours, purring softly by your side. Her quiet companionship makes every moment feel special.

Ella has recently begun showing a more playful side - she's especially fond of batting around small balls and wrestling gently with her sister, Bree. She's incredibly sweet once she warms up, often showing affection with adorable nuzzles, gentle nibbles, and even a few belly rub invitations.

Her favorite things include cuddle sessions, small toy balls, sneaking leftovers from her sister's food, and the loose cardboard under the bed.

Ella may start shy, but if you give her time and love, she'll become a gentle, loyal companion. Are you the calm, understanding person she's been waiting for?

City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is a foster-based rescue in Washington, DC. We do not have a shelter. CDCK has a thorough adoption process to find the best possible fit for each of our dogs and cats (we do not operate under a first-come, first-served model).


Upon accepting a new cat or dog into the organization, we provide a basic vet visit that includes necessary vaccinations, disease screenings, deworming, microchips, and spay/neuter (unless specified). We do not provide a comprehensive medical exam prior to adoption. As a result, sickness, injury, and disability may exist unbeknownst to CDCKR.


City Dogs Rescue & City Kitties is not responsible for payment of any vet care, including known and unknown medical conditions once a cat or dog is adopted from us.


Cat specific vetting: Rabies, FVRCP, Feline Leukemia vaccines, as age appropriate. Cats are tested for FIV and FeLV, when age appropriate, but not when born to a FELV/FIV negative mother in foster care.


The kittens have age-appropriate vetting to date, which includes a veterinary exam, deworming, microchip, and the first FVRCP vaccine. An adopter will need to agree to cover costs of spay/neuter when he/she is age-appropriate (usually 16-20 weeks) and will need to continue his/her kitten vaccines (including rabies) as he/she grows older. Kittens under 12 weeks of age must be adopted in pairs or to a home with friendly resident feline. They will not be considered as singles.
