Critter Details

  Estella (Stella for short) is such a cat! Classic cat, really. She's just like you or us.. she's got style, she's got grace, she's got sass. If she likes something, you'll know, but you'll also know when she's had enough. She's a perfect cat if you're life isn't too exciting and all you wanna do is chill at home. Stella is a mix of contradictions, like any kitty.. She's talkative when she wants something, she's playful until she decides she's not, and you can hold her only until she decides she's had enough. She loves her wand toys, and also likes lasers and scratching on her scratch boards. She may be a little mouthy during playtime or when she's had enough pets, so we recommend older kids (teens) or a childfree space for now. She's silly when she plays and has her zoomies. She'll do those "Scooby-doo" runs throughout the home to get her steps in. She also fits well with a laid back lifestyle- she loves quiet, she'd be fine even in a small apartment apartment, and would be thrilled to be your one and only "fur child" (no kids or other pets, please!). If she decides you've reached bestie status with her, she'll rub her head/body against your body to give a little "hug," and may even give you little kisses. Health-wise, Stella may be 11, but she has the body and spirit of any youngin'!  That said, we still recommend her new family should establish her with a vet shortly after adoption to monitor for any health needs as she grows into her golden years! P.S. Stella has her very own Instagram! Her handle is  @Stella.da.cat_ Age: ~11 years old How I came to PAWS: Owner Surrender Animal ID#: A30128 Meet me at: I am currently in a foster home!
