CAN YOU OFFER LOVELY CLEO A LOVELY NEW YEAR RETIREMENT HOME?
Cleo came into our care after her loving owner recently died and there was no one around who could take care of her. She was very much loved and meant a great deal to her previous owner, as she has been given loads of fuss and always the best veterinary care when she needed it.
Cleo is a tortie coloured puss and as you can see is a bit nosey, always trying to see what is going on. What makes Cleo a little bit different from other cats that we generally have in our care is that Cleo is diabetic and sometime in the past she lost her tail, but none of that bothers her too much. Cleo diabetes is something you see in older cats but it can be easily controlled with proper veterinary care. Her condition is being successfully controlled via a special diet and so far she seems to be fine with that. She has to go back to the vets every now again to check her blood sugar levels, but so far all is well.
Cleo is a friendly, gentle, laid back lady who enjoys company and being stroked and brushed. She is playful, talkative and responds when her name is called. She welcomes people when they come to the door and greets them with a big purr!
The sad fact is that if we had not taken Cleo in, she may have ended up being put to sleep. We cannot say for certain that Cleo’s diabetes will always be controlled by a special diet, but we are keeping our fingers crossed that it will. Cats’ Protection is willing to assist with Cleo’s veterinary/dietary costs, especially if she needs insulin treatment in the future.
Cleo would suit an older family home or indeed a retired person. Cleo is used to having a stroll in the garden, but I bet given the chance she would just sit on the windowsill and watch the world go by from her perch. She is a real trooper of a puss who takes everything in her stride (or paws!). Cleo is obviously a senior lady who deserves a nice cushion and a big cat basket to call her own. So if that special person sounds like you and you want to give a cat a happy retirement then please get in touch.
Cleo has been spayed, is fully up to date with her vaccinations and is chipped. So Cleo wishes you furry head butts and paws to you and just hopes that her new family come forward very soon.
Cleo is in the care of Canterbury CP (East Kent area) and although we would love to rehome locally if a fab home came up with would be willing to rehome outside our area. Homecheck would still need to be done but hopefully we can arrange that via another local rescue organisation.
