Cats are known for their clever ways of getting what they want, and Leonard, a fluffy indoor cat from New Jersey, proved just that! When his owners moved away and left him behind, Leonard refused to become a stray cat. Instead, he came up with a genius plan.
Knowing the comforts of indoor life, Leonard decided to hang around the house next door, hoping the kind neighbors would take him in. He spent days trying to get noticed, but no luck. However, fate had a different plan.
A wonderful woman named Sara, who helps community cats, was in the neighborhood. A neighbor told her about Leonard’s situation, and Sara immediately offered her help. Catching Leonard was easy, as he was a friendly cat who missed being indoors. He purred with joy as Sara picked him up and put him in a carrier.
Leonard was taken to the shelter, where he was checked by a vet and neutered. He was in good health, just a little dirty with a small scratch. After getting cleaned up, Leonard was ready for the next step: finding his forever home.
Thanks to a fantastic animal rescue group, Leonard quickly found a foster family. He adored his new temporary home and followed his foster parents everywhere. Little did he know that another surprise was coming his way.
Only three months later, a family in New Jersey saw Leonard’s picture and fell head over heels for him. They quickly applied to adopt him, and before long, Leonard became a permanent member of their family.
Now, Leonard enjoys all the good things about indoor living. He’s living the dream with his new family, who love him very much and promise never to leave him behind. And if they ever move, Leonard is definitely going with them. This clever kitty’s sneaky plan worked like a charm, leading him to a loving forever home.
