Happily Homed: Elvira (Chloe)

a black cat

Ariana Jenks

We have an adoption update from Alexis who adopted Chloe (now Elvira) in October 2022 at our Pet Supplies Plus partner location in Englewood.

Alexis had been looking for a black cat because they get adopted less, fell in love with the picture online and took her home that day!

Now, Elvira is flourishing, Alexis says. “We have neighbors with cats that she has play dates with. She is a Leo and looooves attention. Her favorite thing to do is look at the windows and chirp at the birds and squirrels in the tree! If she’s not in her hammock if begging for pets, she’s probably practicing her parkour and jumping off the walls.”

Have you adopted from CCS in the past? We’d love to hear how it’s going! Send us your adoption success stories (and photos!) to be featured in our #adoptionupdate series on social media or on our website.
