My story

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

Lucky Leo came to us in June 2016 after the Good Sam who was helping this street cat in Mansfield could no longer afford the extensive oral surgeries Leo required. When Leo was found in the streets, his mouth was so ulcerated that his tongue had to be sewn back together! This sweetheart was in pain and he needed help ASAP. A volunteer helped drive him to us in Cleveland, and within a week, Leo had the surgery he needed. Left with only 2 teeth, Leo made a very good recovery.

Since then, Leo has had the remaining 2 teeth removed due to ongoing dental inflammation. Leo is an incredibly sweet cat, and we really hope there is a special person out there who sees past Leo's toothless smile and adds him to the family. Leo does not want for much - a cat tree by a window for bird watching, a warm lap, plenty of cuddles, and 3 square meals a day. He will likely always be a "messy eater" and does best with canned food due to his mouth issues. Leo is at least 10 years old. His blood work was great, and he gets along well with fellow foster kitties and dogs.

MAWL's cats are spayed/neutered, leukemia/FIV-tested, dewormed, microchipped and up-to-date on vaccines. The cats we offer for adoption are usually the offspring of feral cats or house cats that have been abandoned by their former owners. Unless otherwise noted, our cats are available to inside homes only. We prefer to adopt our animals to residents of Ohio. An adoption donation of $75.00 helps to cover the veterinary fees.
