Meet Ellie

Ellie came to us from the Contra Costa Animal Shelter with her longtime housemate Carl (now known as Zeus).

When she arrived, it was clear she had endured years of neglect and needed urgent medical care.

She underwent several procedures, including a tooth extraction and the removal and biopsy of a mass. During her spay surgery, veterinarians discovered a mummified fetus—a potentially life-threatening condition that had gone untreated for far too long.

Thankfully, Ellie survived and is now healing in a loving fospice home. Ellie is slowly learning what it means to be truly cared for. She’s discovering comfort, safety, and love—perhaps for the first time in her life.

Although Ellie may never find a traditional forever home, she will always have a place with us.

We are committed to providing her with the best possible care for the rest of her days.
