Meet Leo

Leo is a loving 4-year-old cat looking for his forever home! This big fluffy guy is reserved and a bit shy in new environments, but given time and space, he warms up quickly! He loves to be with people and will literally follow us around our apartment. He loves nothing more than receiving pets, especially on the belly as well as butt scratches. His second greatest love is drinking running water from the bathtub (he jumps in the tub and tell us he wants the faucet turned on anytime we enter the bathroom). Leo is a little jumpy with loud noises but will bravely go and investigate; once his curiosity is satisfied, he quickly relaxes. He loves climbing onto our home's highest surfaces and sitting in windows to watch the world go by. This handsome dude’s hobbies are furniture climbing, bird/window observing, striking poses, and ""flopping"" at our feet to signal he would like pets. He enjoys following his humans around the house and running to greet them at the door. He loves to play with his toys, especially string, but will also gladly take a relaxing nap while he keeps you company. Leo has a special chirp for saying hello to his people. This sweetheart is a fairly active boy who spends most of his day alternating between exploring the house and taking naps. He loves to eat and is always excited for canned food time but will not beg for food. (The original Hills dry food he tried did not agree with him, but his new N&D Ocean Herring & Orange food works great.) At night, he rests independently and will be waiting patiently nearby for us to wake up in the morning. Leo currently lives in an apartment with his two adult foster humans, one of whom works from home. We think this loving guy would enjoy being the only pet in a family who spends plenty of time at home, so they can give him the daily attention he craves. Due to his anxiety during the adjustment to our home, we think a family who has experience with cat behavior and is committed to allowing him private space for decompression would be ideal. We also think he'll need Gabapentin to help make his vet visits a calmer experience for him. Leo is so ready to settle into his forever home with caring, compassionate people who can help him gain confidence and know that he is safe and loved. Could that be with you?
