Cleopatra is reserved subject to home check
Cleopatra, or “Cleo” for short, is roughly 3 years old and has striking eyes. She was in a poor state in a rural area constantly hanging around the driveway of a kind lady who then took her in. However, her existing cat took great exception to Cleo and sadly it was not possible to integrate her into the household as hoped so she recently came in to foster care.
We think Cleo has spent a fair amount of time in the past fending for herself and she has yet to fully settle into home life. Her fosterer says that during the day she is a rather reserved, self-contained girl who does not actively seek affection, yet the moment her fosterer lies on the bed a complete transformation takes place. With tail up, she absolutely adores chin rubs, showing her pleasure both with a loud purr and kneading of her paws! At first, she did not seem to understand play, but with lots of encouragement, she now plays a little which is so good to see.
Cleo is still a little skittish and will need to be given time and encouragement to properly relax and settle down. She should have access to a garden/safe outdoor space at the appropriate time.
Technical bits: Cleo is neutered, microchipped and will be fully vaccinated before homing. She will go home with 5 weeks free pet insurance.
If you would like to offer Cleo a loving home, please download the adoption form or email us.
UPDATE 30/4/26: As you can see from the video clip below, Cleo has decided to venture on to fosterer’s lap. That’s a first and lovely to see!
