Leon

My story

LeonI`m looking forward to meeting you, my potential forever family. I am 3-years-old and was adopted by my owner when I was a tiny kitten. I lived with her all my life until I was surrendered to HSHC on January 19, `25. She noticed that I had litterbox issues off and on and took me to the Vet. The doctor told her I had a UTI and gave her medicine to give me. But she was unable to administer it, so by the time I got to HSHC, I had developed a bladder stone! Yikes, that hurts! The HSHC had the stone removed, gave me the necessary medicine, and put me on a diet that helped prevent bladder stones from forming. I moved into a foster home to recover, relax more than I had at the shelter, and gain confidence. My foster dad (FD)reported that I did well in his home. I have had NO litterbox issues to date! He was careful to introduce me very slowly to his own cat. Our settling-in was the most successful my FD has experienced! I am still a shy boy, and it will take longer than you might think necessary to become accustomed to my new home. Trust me when I say a lengthy introduction will pay off in the end! I am a handsome black and white boy, already neutered and very capable of adjusting to a new environment. When the interviewer lady stopped my Condo, I was a bit skittish as we had not met before. But she was quiet and didn`t push me to do anything; I sniffed her finger and let her touch my head. I like playing with fishing toys on a string when feeling comfortable and confident. I am an attentive, affectionate fellow on my terms. So, we might be a perfect match if you are a patient, understanding person. Please note that I may require regular check-ups to monitor my health and ensure I remain free from bladder stones. 4-14-25
