Leia's Story
Hi! My name is Leia and here is a bit more about me :<br/><br/>My Journey<br/>My life before foster care is mostly unknown. I did spend time in a home with dogs and children, but it was very loud and overwhelming for me, and I shut down in that environment. In a calmer space, I’m able to decompress, feel secure, and slowly let my true personality shine.<br/><br/>My Social Life<br/>My brother Luke is my safe place. I follow him everywhere and need to be touching him when I sleep — his presence helps me feel brave and grounded. Because of how closely bonded we are, I would need to be adopted with him.<br/>Dogs and children are not a good fit for me, as they increase my anxiety. In a quiet, adult home with predictable routines, I can take my time warming up and learning that I’m safe.<br/><br/>My Personality<br/>I’m cuddly, cautious, and very food-motivated. I may be reserved at first, but I’m always observing. With patience and consistency (and a few treats), I slowly open up and show my affectionate side. Once trust is built, I become incredibly attached to my people.<br/><br/>I Enjoy...<br/>Watching birds from a sunny window<br/>Churu tubes (the fastest way to my heart)<br/>Cozy naps on a heated blanket<br/>Quiet moments spent relaxing near my favorite beings<br/><br/>I’m Not a Fan Of...<br/>Children, dogs, sudden loud noises, or chaotic environments. Calm, gentle energy helps me feel secure and confident.<br/><br/>What Makes Me Special<br/>Once I decide you’re safe, I turn into a total Velcro cat. Just like with my brother, I’ll glue myself to you — curling up close, cuddling often, and soaking up as much quiet affection as possible.<br/><br/>My Perfect Home<br/>I’m looking for a peaceful, consistent home where I can stay with my brother Luke. I’m not especially play-driven — I prefer relaxation, warmth, and companionship. With patience and understanding, I’ll reward you with deep loyalty, constant cuddles, and a heart full of trust.
