Meet Cleo, a regal lady with a heart as big as her love for lap-sitting! This splendid feline has returned to CVHS after an incredible eleven years with her beloved human, Morgan. Oh, Morgan, a true gem in the community, not only advocated for stable housing for all but also showered Cleo with affection and love that would make even a heart of stone melt! 💖 Cleo was truly his shining star, helping him through life’s storms like a loyal companion should. But now, in her golden years, Cleo finds herself needing a new chapter in her life. 🐾 But let me tell you, she’s not just looking for any home; this special girl needs a sanctuary. Cleo desires to be the one-and-only pet, so no furry siblings, please! 🏠 She’s a lady who knows what she wants and appreciates a gentle hand; push past her boundaries, and she might give you a light smack—just her way of saying, “Not today, friend!” Cleo did spend some treasured moments with Morgan’s granddaughter, but we believe she would thrive best in an adult-only home. Her favorite pastime? Nestling on a warm lap while keeping an eye on the world around her! 💤 It might take her some time to adjust to any new surroundings, but oh, the joy of cuddling with Cleo on those chilly evenings will be worth the wait! When she first came back to us, it was heartbreakingly evident that she was grieving the loss of her beloved Morgan. It took time, but now she’s discovering her spirit anew! 💕 Cleo emerges from her cozy hideouts to greet our team with little rubs against our legs, and she’s finally accepting those gentle pets that remind her she’s loved and safe again. Now we have some very important notes: Cleo needs a little help on her weight loss journey, and she takes her medications mixed in with her delicious wet food. She battles with arthritis and anxiety, making her a special lady who deserves all the love and care she can get. She has her quirks, too; Cleo is quite the drama queen when it comes to vet visits. Precautions will need to be taken to ensure her comfort during these outings, especially after her dental surgeries, so there will be plenty to discuss with interested adopters. Are you ready to open your heart and home to this lovely lady? If it’s a resounding yes, then apply through the Buddy App today! Cleo is waiting for her special someone—could it be you?
