Hello. My name is CATLEEN, I’m a classy, brave little lady of around 5 years old.

I’m tiny but oh I’m brave and strong. I was rescued in a terrible condition during the fires in Cyprus. I’ve been recovering at the shelter and I’m now ready to find my forever home.

I’m still sometimes a little shy when meeting new people, but once I get to know you, you will have a sweet and wonderful new best friend for life. One who will love to spend lots of quality time with you.

That is also the reason why my pictures aren’t that great;) If I have to choose between posing for a photograph or giving and receiving cuddles, I always go for the cuddle time. (You have to know your priorities.)

If being in the proximity of the fires wasn’t bad enough luck, I was also bitten by a sandfly and got leishmania for which I received treatment for and is now dormant and under control. Leishmania is controllable and NOT life shortening if monitored correctly, I do need to take inexpensive medication to make sure that the disease stays dormant. My rescuers are very knowledgeable on this leishmania disease which is not transmittable and they tell me not to worry at all because with blood tests to monitor treatment, I will live a long and happy life!
