My Story
***IN FOSTER***
You know Dasher and Dancer, but do you know Prancer?
No? Well, Prancer the green-eyed feline has plenty to tell you! EHS took in around 20 cats from a garage in 2019, and Prancer was later found living inside the main home. We don't know how long she was in the home for, but she didn't seem to have had much positive interaction with people in the household. Prancer is now beginning to get more comfortable around people on her own terms.
She loves to play--whether it's by herself or with a human controlling a wand, she'll give it her all to catch those elusive little toys. Or, if she's feeling particularly energetic, she'll show off her stellar soccer moves by batting a ball around the room. Even with complete strangers, Prancer will allow people to get close to her, as long as they don't try to touch her. With people she knows (along especially if they have a treat to offer), Prancer has started to accept pets by hand.
Prancer has recently moved to a foster home from the shelter, and has enjoyed the opportunity to explore her temporary home. During her time at the shelter, she spent most of her day up on shelves, occasionally coming down to play. In her foster home, she loves to test out new pieces of furniture, but has her few favourite spots to sleep in (she's a big fan of "her" couch!). Prancer would prefer to be the only cat in the household.
Prancer is a skittish cat who has had minimal experience with humans. With the help of a foster family, she is on a journey to adapt to a new environment and become more comfortable around people. Potential adopters should be prepared to commit the time, effort, and patience required to build Prancer’s confidence and trust. It should be noted that while some skittish cats might remain reserved, others may express their trust and affection in a variety of ways. A skittish cat will benefit from a calm, quiet environment, preferably without small children. If needed, EHS will offer post-adoption support to assist Prancer with a successful transition to her forever home.

The adoption fee for a single cat at EHS is $175. Take home an adult feline friend for your kitty and the adoption fee for the pair is $300! For kittens under six months of age, the adoption fee is $200...Or double your cuteness quotient and adopt two wee furballs for $350! If you mix and match (kitten plus cat), the adoption fee is $300. Each of our cats is spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, snap tested for FIV/FeLV, dewormed, and flea treated prior to adoption. Kittens are not spayed or neutered until 5 months of age, but the cost of spay/neuter will be covered as part of the adoption.
