About Cleo

Cleo is a delightful little lady with a warm, affectionate personality. She loves lounging on your chest, showering you with head butts, and snuggling up for a good binge-watch session. Born a stray kitten in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, she has a resilient spirit that shines despite her life’s challenges. Having been in the care of a service member, Cleo is now ready for a loving forever home. She's quite talkative and enjoys interacting with her human friends, especially when food is involved. While she shares space with Tony and a laid-back male cat in her foster home, she prefers not to share her territory with other felines. Cleo does get along with a calm 25lb terrier mix, and she’ll truly blossom once she feels secure in her new environment. Born in April 2023, she is spayed, microchipped, and her vaccinations are up to date. This affectionate kitty is eager to find her special person. Think you can be Cleo’s human?
