Meet Leila — professional snuggler, champion suckler, and aspiring escape artist! Leila is an extremely affectionate little girl who gets VERY attached to her people. If she loves you, she’ll happily seek out your neck, your ear, or—her personal favorite—your lip for a little comfort suckling. So please don’t consider adopting Leila unless you’re okay with a little kitten slobber! She’ll most likely grow out of it eventually, but for now it brings her comfort and isn’t something she should be rejected or reprimanded for. Personally, I find it pretty adorable…but I realize not everyone wants kitten slobber in their ear or mouth! Leila also gets along wonderfully with other animals. She plays well with other cats, and it took her only a few hours to decide my daughter’s Labrador was perfectly acceptable friend material. Now for Leila’s one serious flaw: she is a door darter—and she is FAST. If a door opens, Leila can shoot through it so quickly you may not even see her go. Her adopter will need to be extremely careful and have a household where everyone understands that exterior doors must be opened with Leila’s whereabouts in mind. If you’re looking for an affectionate, social…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.
