About Cleo

Cleo is a handsome adult DSH tuxedo male looking for a warm forever home. At five years old, this gentle giant has a history that includes being left outdoors in winter, but he’s now safe and healthy with his foster dad and a group of other cats. Although Cleo might appear serious at first, he’s quite the laid-back sweetheart who adores human companionship and gets along beautifully with his feline friends. Cleo is beginning to show his playful side, transforming from just a curious observer into an engaging companion. While he may not be a lap cat yet, he's eager to sleep close at night, either touching you or snuggled in your arms. He really enjoys mealtime, happily running over when he hears the wet food can pop open, always polite about sharing. It's believed that he will become even more affectionate in a home with just one or two kitty friends, allowing him to fully relax and settle in. He knows how to greet you cheerfully at the door and delights in being brushed. Cleo loves bird-watching from the window and has a friendly disposition that makes him a perfect gentleman around other cats. His ideal home is one that can provide him a bit of time to adapt, letting his cuddly nature shine through once he’s comfortable. If Cleo sounds like the companion for you, he’s ready to cuddle and share moments together.
