About Nellie

Meet Nellie! This sweet girl and her siblings have a heartwarming backstory. Rescued from a deep storm drain at just six weeks old, they got a second chance just before heavy storms hit. Since then, Nellie has been adjusting to life indoors and loving every minute of it. Though she’s a bit shy at first, once Nellie warms up to you, she becomes a constant purring companion who craves attention and pets. She delights in curling up next to you or on your legs, enjoying those quiet cuddle moments. Playtime makes her happy, but nothing beats a good nap followed by a snack for this little girl. It’s important that Nellie is adopted alongside her sister, Sadie. These two are inseparable and balance each other perfectly! Please apply to adopt on our website.
