Tortoiseshell Cats Available for Adoption

Meet Cleo, a gorgeous 18 month old dilute Tori girl who is 10 pounds and needing a quiet, calm home that doesn't have an overly enthusiastic dog living in the home. Her owner says at least 1 pound of her 10 pounds is probably the dramatically long, luxuriously fluffy hair that she wears with pride. CLeo has lived in a house for the past year with a puppy who has grown up and decided to make her calm life a bit of a hell. He chases thinking it is fun and Cleo is NOT amused. Her mom says it would be easier to find a new home for Cleo rather than the young pup. So here we are....in search of peace and quiet for this beauty queen. What you need to know about Cleo is that she is mostly sassy but has a sweet side, too. Cleo thinks she’s too young to be a lazy lap cat, but she will snuggle up under your chin once she gets to know you. She is NOT active at night and basically just sleeps on the bed or in her chair. Her owner says she rarely scratches the rugs or furniture and loves her palm tree scratching post. She LOVES to look out the window and watch the world (birds) go by. She is not a fan of “playful” dogs and has become very prickly and paranoid from living with one,l so we think a lazy lap dog in the house would be fine but nothing big and busy. She is the softest, most gorgeous creature, and deserves to be the Queen of her castle. If you are interested in Cleo then please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at

The Tortoiseshell cat is known for its unique coat pattern that blends various hues of red, black, and orange in a striking mosaic. These cats are predominantly female due to the genetics behind their coat coloration. Tortoiseshells are often affectionate and independent, with individual personalities that shine through. Their coats are a beautiful patchwork of colors, making them highly sought-after pets for cat lovers seeking a companion with a vibrant and dynamic appearance.
