Leo

Part-time Clinic Cat

Greetings Humans! My official name is Leonardo DiCatrio, I also go by Leo the Lion, or just “Leo” for short. I am a cool, laidback cat... you know, like that cute guy I was named after or whatever. I am a Persian cat and I was born in February 9th, 2016. I enjoy the company of other animals, especially puppies! Most of the time I’m too busy sleeping though to socialize. You’ll find me laying in a chair in the behind our Client Care Coordinator’s desk, in our reception area; that is my spot. I will sleep there every day, open to close, without a second thought. When I do get up from the comfiest sleeping place ever, you will probably find me eating or following Ben around, because like any other cat in the world, I LOVE food. Plus, Ben is my dude! Occasionally I will play, so if you find a wand or a toy, let me know, I would definitely love to play with you. I really love humans, but I could do without them brushing me, usually resulting in a goofy haircut. Yeah, yeah, that Leo the Lion style nonsense. Chest and chin scratches are my favorite, but I’ll settle for the top of my head and cheeks too.

Update December 2025:

Leo has been having some medical issues so we've elected to move him to live with Molly, our DVM student. He's thriving living in her home and is enjoying his life. His overall quality of life and medical concerns have improved tremendously. You will still see him roaming the clinic part-time, but for the majority of the time he has decided that Molly's house is a pretty great place to rest and relax!
