From Little Orphan's Animal Rescue, Inc.

Ella came to us for a less-than-ideal situation (along with her sister Roxie). They lived in a home with many other cats (unsterilized). Although it sounds like all of the cats were "loved", they were not well cared for at least by our standards, as most/all have never been provided any vetting. These two cats have since been vetted (spay, vaccinations, parasite treatments, and treatments for skin and respiratory concerns). Both cats' medical concerns have been addressed and are resolving well, we are now working on social/emotional health. Both girls seem affectionate but not completely sure how to accept love. Ella seems a little more nervous than Roxie at this point, as we have found her hiding "under" her bed. Time is starting to help, the more time we spend in her room she will stay out for longer, she will meow for pets, she is even starting to lean into them as if to say more please. She does purr and will get comfortable in her bed occasionally even exposing her belly. We do believe as she heals physically (her skin was very irritated from fleas) she will continue to enjoy touch on her body more. These girls have been through so much and like just like people animals heal…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.
