A lot of Elvira's history is a complete mystery to us but what we can tell you is that she's a rambunctious, chatty little cat who is very affectionate, but prefers it when that affection is on her own terms.
When we first heard about her, it was from our local veterinary office where she had been brought in after being hit by a car. At that point, they weren't able to tell us more than the fact that she had a broken jaw and they wanted to know if we were able to take her or if they were going to have to put her down. Luckily, we had the space for her, so they did surgery to fix her jaw and she was with us the very next day!
Since she's been with us, its very obvious that she was a loved cat. She immediately was friendly with our staff and wasn't afraid to let us know when she wanted attention! She's fully healed now and is doing well in our cat room with a singular buddy, but with think she would do well in a home with chill other cats or as a solo cat so she can have all of your attention. We haven't tested her with dogs yet, but think she would do fine with one if the dog was used to being around cats.
Personality-wise, she's super confident and loves to hang out with people, but will let you know when she's done getting pets and will wander away to snooze in the windowsill.
If you are looking for an easy going cat to chill with, Elvira's your girl!
You can fill out an adoption application for her on our website, waywardranch.org, or reach out if you have any questions!

More about this rescue
Our Mission: To provide a quality life to the animals that need it most.
Wayward Ranch Animal Sanctuary, Inc. is a 501c3, tax exempt non-profit organization and all donations to our sanctuary are tax deductible.
The Dream:
Wayward Ranch was founded by three friends who, after working for other rescues for a long time, realized there was something missing from the average rescue model. No animal is perfect, and in the typical shelter system any behavioral concerns an animal had coming in are just exacerbated the longer they are kenneled or caged waiting for a home.
Many local shelters have taken to shipping puppies up from the south because they are more “adoptable” than the shelter animals we have here. However, this just floods are market and takes homes and resources from our local animals who are suffering as a result.
We are committed to a different type of rescue experience. We are a unique combination of adoption and sanctuary facility, taking the pressure of euthanasia away from animals who may not be generically adoptable. We also help our animals thrive, rather than deteriorate, as they wait for forever homes using a combination of enrichment and training techniques.
