My story

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

Best Match:

  • Seeking an adopter with some cat experience
  • Could join a calm home with cat savvy older kids
  • May be ok with other cats
  • Needs to be indoor only
  • On a special diet and gets a monthly arthritis shot at the vet

Leia’s charm is undeniable! She’s a mellow senior black cat, confident and comfortable in her own fur — which happens to be extra fluffy. She’ll delight friends and family with how quickly she cozies up to them or asks to be brushed. 

Leia likes to be part of the action and will sweetly seek your attention with affectionate head butts, asking for pets, and purring in return. 

Like most cats, Leia has a preferred daily schedule. She’ll meow to let you know when it’s time for breakfast, a mid-afternoon snack, and dinner. In between meals, she’ll find cozy places for napping — which could be next to her person on the couch. Give her  some low key wand play and she'll happily join you for more snuggling at bedtime. 

Leia has Stage 2 kidney disease, which is well-managed with a prescription wet food diet and a daily hydration supplement. She also has arthritis that’s treated with a monthly injection she receives at the vet, and a daily joint supplement added to her food. She is also slightly visually impaired, but navigates her world just fine!

This easygoing senior simply wants a peaceful, caring home where she can live her best life and feel like family. If you’re looking for an affectionate calm companion who’s happiest when she’s by your side, Leia is the girl for you! She’s spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FeLV and FIV. If you are interested in setting up a meeting or have more questions, please complete our Adoption Inquiry form: form.jotform.com/cattownoak/adoption-inquiries
