American Shorthair Cats Available for Adoption

Meet Cleo: The Professional Napper
It is with a heavy heart that we are looking for a new 'forever lap' for our beloved Cleo. While we wish she could stay with us forever, a significant feline allergy in our youngest child means Cleo needs a new home where she can be the center of attention without causing any sneezes.

Quick Stats
* Age: 7 years young
* Energy Level: Expert-level relaxation
* Special Skills: Competitive cuddling, synchronized purring, and finding the single sunbeam in any room.

Personality & Traits
Cleo is a master of leisure. If there were an Olympic sport for napping, she would take home the gold every time. At seven years old, she has long outgrown the 'zoomies' and much prefers a quiet life of luxury and affection.
* The Cuddle Queen: Cleo doesnâ€ÂTMt just tolerate affection; she seeks it out. She is a true companion cat who loves to be near her humans, whether thatâ€ÂTMs curled up on the sofa during a movie or tucked into the crook of your arm.
* Low Maintenance: Being a bit on the lazy side, Cleo is the perfect match for someone looking for a calm, steady presence. She isn't one to climb the curtains or knock over vases—sheâ€ÂTMs far too busy resting for her next nap.
* Sweet Temperament: She has a gentle soul and a very mellow disposition, making her an easy addition to a peaceful household.

The Ideal Home
Cleo would thrive in a home where she can get plenty of head scratches and has a soft spot to call her own. She is looking for a family or individual who appreciates the finer things in life: peace, quiet, and a very soft cat to pet.

She may be lazy, but she has a heart of gold and enough love to fill a whole home!
