Picture of the Day- Day 54


I'm sure I've posted pictures of Leo before. This is him, waiting for someone to let him out.

Leo started out as a mean, angry, and kind of nasty cat. He hissed and bit or basically ignored us. After a few months, my dad and stepmom smothered him with love but on his own terms. It turns out that he's just kind of a tease. He'll circle around you a few times and stop just out of reach when he's ready to be pet. You, of course, have to go to him but, of course, only when he's ready.

He's still a bit standoffish but has proven to be a lovely and loyal cat, sitting guard next to you and watching over the house like a sphinx. His fur was very rough when we first got him, but it turns out, the more you pet him, the more of the bristly hairs come out and the soft underfur comes through.
