She enjoys coming up with new plant based dishes, taking pictures of those dishes to put up on Instagram with a great filter and some pertinent hashtags and then eating those dishes. Yeah, she’s that person. She also likes to tell people she’s been drinking almond milk since before it was cool, has a small thrift store addiction and cannot pass up a garage sale. She lives with her two kids, two dogs and husband in the wild west. Read more about JJ Dolm Read More
Ever hear the saying, you can’t judge a book by it’s cover? It proves itself true time and time again. Whether it’s a food that might not look so great and turns out to be the most delicious thing you’ve ever had or, say, an actual book that looks pretty hideous and quickly takes up space in your all time favorites. Or, in another instance, a cat that sits sadly at a shelter, looking fragile and alone. You take that cat home, presuming he’ll grow to be a modestly sized, fluffy member of your family.
But, as we’ve established, looks can be sooo deceiving. “Tiny” may be only a pound today, but pretty soon he grows into his full name of Leopold “Butters” Scotch. Weighing in at a majestic, and whopping, 30-pounds, Leo is stunningly huge. Especially compared to Penny, the other more typically sized cat in the household. He also kinda dwarfs his pet parent as well. Just sayin.
While we’re fairly certain that his guardians didn’t bank on bringing a miniature lion into the house, it’s pretty obvious that they’re happy they did. Leo seems content and appreciated for just who he is. Maybe he won’t feel compelled to follow the yellow brick road to ask the Wizard for some courage after all?

People come on. The cat is healthy and very cute. So what it is a little over weight. It was saved and that is all that matters. Love the pictures.
I believe this has some Maine Coon in him
He\’s a beautiful cat.
