About SLeah Star

Leah Star is a truly feral spirit—she’s been surviving on her own terms and isn’t interested in changing for anyone. She won’t swat or bite, but approach her and you’ll get a loud, unmistakable hiss and a clear message to stay back. Leah is here because she’s tough; she’s learned to thrive in her own way. Don’t expect physical closeness, at least not anytime soon. She’ll need a home where her boundaries are respected and her independence is valued. Still, a shelter is a stressful place, and some cats, even wary ones like Leah, do better in patient, understanding homes. Leah does get along with other cats and could be a good companion for a multi-cat household, provided she isn’t pressured to socialize. Leah is spayed, house trained, and currently in Windsor, CT, waiting for the person who’s willing to give her space and let her settle on her own time. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
