About Leaf
Leaf came in worried and unsure after a tough time outside, her instincts focused on caring for her kittens. Fortunately, she was able to raise them safely in a foster home, and while she’s been with the rescue, she’s learned to relax more, though her shy side remains. Leaf prefers quiet nooks and will often retreat to her favorite nap spots if there’s foot traffic. She’s come a long way but still finds the world a little intimidating. Leaf’s looking forward to a gentle, patient home—especially one with another cat—where she can finally settle in for good. Can you help make Leaf’s quiet dream a reality?
