Elle Fanning is a Cat Lady

Elle Fanning and a gal pal stop to look at some cats up for adoption on Sunday afternoon (September 4) in Santa Monica, Calif.

After passing the adoption, the 13-year-old actress and her friend headed to the ABS by Allen Schwartz boutique for a little retail therapy.

While we wait for more news about Elle‘s upcoming movie, Twixt, JJJ can tell you that The Nutcracker: The Untold Story is hitting Blu-ray and DVD shelves on November 1st.

In the flick, Elle plays Mary, a little girl whose godfather gives her a special doll one Christmas Eve. JJJ Note: The movie was formerly titled The Nutcracker in 3D.
