About Cleo

Meet Cleo! This lovely 1-2 year old calico is ready for her forever home after a challenging past. Once a cherished pet, Cleo found herself abandoned when her family moved away. Unspayed and caring for multiple litters, her life was all about motherhood until she was rescued and brought into foster care. It was clear from the start that she was too sweet to return to the streets. Now that all six of her kittens have found their forever families, it’s Cleo's turn. Since being in foster care, she's transformed into an affectionate and loving companion. Cleo enjoys chin scratches, making biscuits, and indulging in catnip. Although she may take a few days to warm up, her sweet disposition shines through once she feels safe. Cleo has successfully lived with other cats and has experience as a nurturing mother, so she should adjust well to feline friends with a bit of time for a proper introduction. While she hasn’t met dogs yet, she could likely get along with calm, cat-friendly dogs given a gradual introduction. After dedicating her life to others, this sweet girl deserves a family who will prioritize her happiness. Cleo is currently located on the Mississippi Gulf Coast but can be transported to the northeast. The adoption fee is $300. Could Cleo be your next forever girl? Start the process today!
