My story

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

Leo came to us from a high-kill shelter all the way from New Orleans! He has a condition called cerebellar hypoplasia (CH), which is a neurological disorder that affects motor skills. It is not a painful condition, nor does it get worse with age. He has a very mild form of it, and he gets around very well. The only thing that gives him away is he has a head swivel, called an intention tremor. Read more about CH here: https://lifewithchcats.com/what-is-cerebellar-hypoplasia/

Leo is a bit nervous in new situations, but once he gets used to you he is a total cuddle bug. He prefers to be an only cat, but he will tolerate one or two other cats as long as he can have his own space. He'd be ideal as an only cat though and he is afraid of dogs. Leo is neutered, current on vaccines and negative for FIV and FELV.

If you're interested in meeting this special guy, make an appointment to come see us!
