🧡 After years of caring for her kittens, it’s Elpitha’s turn to be someone’s baby.

This beautiful eight-year-old calico spent seven years living on the streets and raising litter after litter. Since coming into rescue, her kittens have found loving homes—but Elpitha is still waiting for her own. 🏡🐾

Her foster describes her as friendly, sweet, funny, and full of personality, with a little calico sass! She currently shares her foster room with other adult cats, but her favorite part of the day is getting to explore the house.

The first one waiting at the door, Elpitha heads straight upstairs to settle onto a cozy bed. When it’s time to return, even the promise of treats isn’t always enough to convince her to leave her comfy spot! 🥰

This lovely girl is ready for the simple comforts of a forever home: a soft place to sleep, room to roam, and people who love her.

💕 Help give Elpitha the next chapter she deserves. Apply to adopt through A Pathway to Hope:

Please share to help her find her family! 🐾

🤍 Two sweet girls, still waiting for their chance. 🤍

Snow White and Cinderella are safe from the elements, but they are still in the shelter—and these shy, frightened girls need the comfort of a home. 🐾

They have been nothing but sweet. After living outside, the transition to life inside a home will take patience, reassurance, and someone willing to let them settle in at their own pace.

They are especially scared without one another. We would love to find a foster or forever home where they can stay together. If placed separately, we feel each would benefit from another dog to help her feel safe and learn the ropes. ❤️

Can you see past their fear and give them the time and love they need to shine?

🏡 Apply to foster at www.apathwaytohope.org. Interested in adopting? We’d love to hear from you, too!

Please share to help Snow White and Cinderella find their way home. ✨
