About Leo (Domestic Medium Hair) in San Francisco, CA 94141

Leo is waiting for you at Give Me Shelter Cat Rescue in San Francisco, CA 94141. Leo — Gentle Giant, Professional Cuddler, and Your New Best Friend Hello there! I'm Leo, a 17-pound orange and white Maine Coon with a silky-soft coat, a mellow personality, and a heart that's just as big as I am. Life threw me an unexpected curveball when my person lost their housing in San Francisco and could no longer keep me. It was heartbreaking for both of us. Overnight, I not only lost my person, but also my canine best friend. It was a lot of change all at once, but I've kept my gentle, loving spirit, and now I'm hoping for a new beginning with a family to call my own. If you're looking for a cat who's equal parts companion and cuddle buddy, I might just be your perfect match. I absolutely adore my people and like to be involved in whatever they're doing. I'll happily follow you from room to room, supervise your day, and make sure you never forget to give me the pets I deserve. If I think you've been distracted for a little too long, I'll politely meow until you remember that I'm right there waiting for some love. Sometimes I'll even flop dramatically at your feet or hop onto your lap to make my point. I'm also a creature of habit. When bedtime rolls around, I'll remind you that it's time to call it a night because sleeping beside my favorite human is one of my favorite places to be. And don't expect to sleep in too late—once your alarm goes off, I'll be right there making sure your day starts with plenty of Leo time. When it's time for one of my daytime naps, though, I often like to tuck myself under the bed for a cozy little snooze before I'm ready to rejoin you. While I enjoy the occasional wand toy session, I'm much more of a laid-back gentleman than an acrobat. I'd rather spend my energy soaking up affection, lounging nearby, and keeping you company than racing around the house. I've also lived with a cat-friendly dog and have been around older children, so I already know
