Leonardo DiCatprio

LEONARDO is an absolute gorgeous blue point little Siamese X boy. He is about 7-8 years old, but small built, weighs only just 4.3kg.

Unlike your typical Siamese cat, Leonardo is NOT very vocal at all. When he does meow, it's few faint little meows for food or attention. And his meow is absolutely the cutest, the deepest cat voice we have ever heard.

Leonardo is rather shy and timid, especially in new surroundings and with new people. But with time and patience he warms up to (gentle) human touch. After a while, he will ask for his pats with head bonks, and by rubbing against your legs & feet.

And he just loves to keep his human(s) company, by sleeping right next to them on their bed or the couch.

He also seems to enjoy having his fur brushed. Which helps him a lot with hairballs, too. When his excess shedding fur ends up in the brush instead of his tummy. ;-)

Leonardo is also afraid of other cats, but so long as the other cat(s) are friendly, and non aggressive towards him, he doesn't mind. Very slow introductions and Feliway diffuser are essential to help him get to know a potential new kitty sibling or siblings.

Food is a bit of an issue for Leonardo.
He has assumed IBD of some sort, which makes him vomit frequently. At worst (on kibble) he vomits daily, at best (on a balanced raw diet and wet food) only every 10 days. He probably would do best on an exclusively balanced raw food diet, but currently doesn't like that too much. He also does better (eg, less vomiting) on frequent little wet meals throughout the day (not kibble though).

The family also observed that he likes ladies better than men, and suggested he'd be more suitable to an elderly or single lady. But at his foster carer's house he is most comfortable with the 10yo daughter, so long as she is very gentle with him.

Leonardo is such a loving & grateful little soul. An absolute gem, inside and out. We believe he will make his new human(s) purrfectly happy. And we are praying for his new human(s) to equally treasure and treat him like the unique, precious "diamond" (nickname Diamond Blue, because of his stunning blue eyes) and "king of the castle" he is. <3 <3 <3
