Meet Cleo

Hello there, my name is Cleo.

I'm a beautiful short-haired black and white tuxedo kitty with soft and silky fur. I am rather a laid back, to be honest. I do love to play, but when I'm done, I just lay down to rest. My foster mum will come up and kiss me on my nose and call me "love." I lift my head to her, so she can do it, because I love my kisses! I’m a very good snuggler too and love to be held and carried around.

My life didn’t start out so fun and happy; it was actually pretty scary. My siblings and I were out playing and having a rough and tumble time, like most kittens do, when suddenly we saw a strange yet compassionate man come up to each and every one of us and put us in cat carriers and cart us away from our momma.

We were all really scared and starting meowing, but he didn't understand what we were trying to say. We were saying we want to go back home, but that never happened. We were taken to a place called Animal Services and the girls in the office felt so sorry for us, because many of us were terribly sick and needed to be fed from a bottle. We watched her while she picked up a phone and called a rescue called Kalamazoo Animal Rescue. One of their volunteers jumped at the chance to help all nine of us and here we are today!

Many strange yet wonderful things happened while we were foster kitties. We got lots of care to make us healthy and tons of love from the wonderful humans that cared for us. Did we miss our mom? Yes, for a while, but these wonderful foster homes did so much for us that soon the memories of our mommy have since passed.

And now I’m at my new foster home keeping Toothless company until we both find our forever homes. My new roomie is a lot of fun to play with and we get lots of love and attention from our new humans. Plus they give us lots of fun toys to play with! I would LOVE, LOVE to go home with Toothless--he is a wonderful best buddy.

I'm a lot of fun, and will promise to make you smile, at every chance I get. Just remember though… "kiss me on the nose, and call me love."

Love,

Cleo
