About Cleopatra

Cleopatra is a striking gray tortoiseshell with the classic “tortitude” that fans of this pattern know well. If you want a companion cat who enjoys being near her person—especially at naptime—Cleo could be a great fit. She’s playful, loves to be brushed, and is always up for a good game, though sometimes she needs gentle guidance to keep her energy in check. Sudden noises or quick movements can spook her, and she’s had a few big changes in life, which can make her a bit anxious with new places and people. She gets along with cat-friendly dogs and other cats after a slow introduction. Her foster family includes four cats and a dog, and Cleo has learned how to hang out during the day as part of the group. It’s likely she’ll need a few weeks to truly settle in, but with patience and love, Cleopatra will reward you as an affectionate companion. She’s spayed, vaccinated, tested negative for feline leukemia, and microchipped. Cleo isn’t comfortable with young children, so a calm, adult household will suit her best.
