Meet Leo! This handsome, friendly 3-year-old Flame Point Siamese mix is a super-sweet, gentle soul who is everything you could want in a cuddly companion! He’s incredibly affectionate, loves snuggling, happily makes biscuits, and has a calm, easygoing personality. He also gets along wonderfully with other cats and is currently best buddies with another cat in his foster home.
Leo has diabetes, but don’t let that scare you away—his diabetes is well-managed, and caring for him is much easier than most people imagine!
His routine is simple:
- Insulin injections twice a day, given after he eats.
- He eats Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets DM Dietetic Management wet cat food before each insulin dose.
- During the rest of the day, when he’s hungry, he enjoys Fancy Feast Classic Pâté, a veterinarian-recommended non-prescription option for diabetic cats.
Leo is the perfect patient. He takes his insulin like an absolute champion—he doesn’t flinch, react, hiss, or bite. He sits calmly for his injections, making his daily care quick and stress-free. His insulin is also very affordable, with each bottle typically lasting up to 3 months. Beyond his daily routine, he simply needs routine blood work and checkups as recommended by your vet to keep his diabetes well controlled.
This loving gentleman is proof that diabetic cats can live happy, fulfilling, normal lives. He’s healthy, thriving, and ready to bring so much love to the lucky family that gives him a chance.
Leo is about 3 years old. He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations and tested negative for FIV/FeLV. As a special breed, his adoption fee is $300.
