Leo
LEO is a handsome CREAM PERSIAN. He is around 4 years old, neutered, fully vetted and has his claws. He is a structurally big boy at 11 pounds and has a dense, cottony coat and bright gold eyes.
Leo has a sadder story than most Persians we come across. He had belonged to someone who tried to give him away and when that didn’t work out he was literally tossed out of the house to fend for himself. An unfixed Persian trying to survive outdoors with wildlife and feral cats. Fortunately, a kind neighbor had her eye on him and was persistent in trying to get him somewhere safe. He was so terrified outside that it took her four months to live trap him and then contacted us immediately. Our wonderful transport volunteers pulled together an emergency trip and he was on his way to an SPCR foster home within a few hours.
Despite his ordeal, Leo is healthy and has proven himself to be a gentle, sweet-natured kitty who is excellent with other cats and would make a great addition to a quiet adult household experienced with the care needs of flat faced breeds. His eyes do need to be kept clean and his cottony coat should be kept in a short lion cut or combed daily (he likes to be combed so that helps).
No cat should have to endure what this poor boy already has so a stable, experienced home will be so welcomed!!
