Baby Leo came to us from the same Breeder who gave us Xanadu, Ella, and Cookie. Due to health reasons, she is reducing her numbers and maybe closing her Scottish Fold Cattery. I was very curious to see Baby Leo when he arrived because of his beauty, his blue eyes, very folded ears and silver/ white fur. I happen to know his parents came from Ukraine.

He arrived Leo said "Oh my goodness I am really upset to leave my home! What's happening? " Cats just don't like surprises and that first day poor Baby Leo was shy and reclusive. I said" OK I'll leave you alone. I can wait." Well, I didn't have to wait long. Just a few days later there he was: a very cuddly young absolute love bug. Now when he feels safe, and when you focus your attention on him, he absolutely can't get enough of you. The photos show that. He has a very, very generous heart and gives himself away totally.

The Breeder said that" any family that gets him will be so lucky to have him". And it took me just that first week to see what she meant. A year old now, Baby Leo will grow a bit bigger and will have more confidence in his new life in the next couple years. He's kind of in his young colt stage; long legs and slender, long body, all playfulness and curiosity.

As a kitten, he caught an illness from his mother, FIP, feline infectious peritonitis. With his mother, he went through the medication protocol and they both came out fine and healthy. Baby Leo has a common remnant of that illness, however. He can walk and run just fine, but he has a little wobble in his hind legs that shows up sometimes. You don't always see it, but it's there and I just want you to know about it. Nerves, I know, recover slowly and he may still be outgrowing that or it may never completely leave. The important thing is that he can run and play and it doesn't bother him at all. He doesn't need any medical care or exams for it.

His sparkling fur is silky, soft and surprisingly easy to care for. Baby Leo doesn't have much of the cottony undercoat that mats up so easily. You will find you need to wipe his face occasionally because any little quantity of tears will show against the whiteness of his fur. We have a little canister of 2 inch premoistened eye wipes that makes that all so easy. Other than that, he uses his box perfectly and loves to eat food, he's a very easy-care little kitty. We've checked his ears and they're fine and clean. We also have the little one finger wipes that make cleaning ears a breeze. Even though his ears are folded, and he has blue eyes, his hearing seems to be just fine.

This breeder let her kitties run around free in her house, so her kitties were well socialized and are very familiar and comfortable with other cats. Leo would be happy with other cats as long as they weren't dominant or mean to him. This is a tender kitty, who at this stage in his life is still a little thoughtful about feeling safe and loved. I don't think he's ever met dogs so that would need to be an extra careful introduction to a respectful dog. I do think he'd be happy to have the company of a friendly kitty and I think that would be good for him. He will definitely bond very deeply with his new family so it would be best if they were in the home most of the time.

As the Breeder said "some family will be so lucky to have his loving company. " He is a treasure. He is being offered for adoption only to families who live in the state of California.
