My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My name is (Big) Leo and I am a big, handsome, golden boy, just like a lion. Watching me is like having the sun come out! I am friendly, outgoing and playful. I came to AWLMC from a nice lady that took me in when my previous family no longer wanted me. When you meet me, you’ll see I am quiet, and well mannered. I prefer to come to you for attention as I do not liked to be picked up, but I do enjoy being near my humans and will sit near you while you watch TV or read. I have a big beautiful purr, just like me. Occasionally I might crawl into your lap and give you Eskimo kisses. My favorite thing is to be gently stroked under the chin. One thing we can do together is to watch the birds and the squirrels outside the windows. I love sitting in the window watching the world go by. I am a bit too curious about the outside world, so my forever family will need to watch me carefully around doors. I was born in 2009.
