Found on the side of the road in Nashville, TN, this poor cat was taken to Cat Shoppe Rescue to get help. King Leo’s fur was severely matted and over 2lbs of it had to be removed. He probably knew that he was in a bad condition so he was quiet and didn’t complain while the workers cared for him. He was dangerously overweight for a cat, tipping the scales just over 23 lbs, which is massive for his small frame.

Patricia, a vet technician at the Cat Shoppe Rescue adopted Leo and regularly gives him water treadmill treatment. She and her family are on a mission to help him lose weight and get him healthy for good. Living in a forever home with such caring family, how can King Leo not get better and lose weight in no time at all!
