Ellie is a very well-behaved, sweet girl. She's almost 6 (4/1/2016) and in good health. (Her last well-exam was end of Sept. 2021.) She's a chill cat that adjusts to new people well. She doesn't much like to be held, but loves attention so she'll stand or sit on your lap and lay next to you in bed. She does shed a decent amount but doesn't mind being brushed. She's a timid cat when it comes to other felines and doesn't stand up for herself when harassed by others. She's managed through the years but has become more afraid of a couple of my other cats, which in return has them intimidating her more.  She's done well around dogs, and even other cats who respect her space (though at this point would need some extra time to adjust to new cats). She hasn't been around little kids more than a few times but has also done just fine with them, and has no problem with men or women. She'd really love to spend her days with anyone who wants to give her some love  and attention.
