About Leo

Leo is a striking 2-year-old brown tabby with medium-length fur, boasting a fluffy tail and soulful eyes. Weighing in at 16 pounds, he carries a big presence, yet his nature is incredibly gentle. With a personality to match his size, Leo is sweet, expressive, and full of charm. He craves gentle attention, enjoys being petted and cuddled, and is even a fan of belly rubs. Simply being close to his people brings him joy, making him a warm and comforting companion. Rescued from living outside, Leo has adapted beautifully to indoor life, feeling safe and happy in his foster home. He gets along well with other cats and has a calm demeanor. However, due to his sensitivity to loud noises and sudden movements, a peaceful, quiet home would be ideal for him. Leo is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, flea-treated, and litter-box trained. He has also tested negative for feline leukemia and FIV. We are seeking a loving home where this remarkable boy can be cherished and become a true family member. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
