More about Leia

Meet Lio Gunnison (aka Leia) — a tiny warrior with a lioness’s heart. She fought her way to safety. This brave little girl came straight from the streets, battered and limping, her leg badly broken—but her spirit completely unshaken. Even in pain, Gunnison never stopped purring. She greeted her rescuers with trust in her eyes and strength in her tiny body. Underneath the dust and injuries was a cat who refused to give up. With vet care, rest, and lots of love, Gunnison has begun to heal. Her leg may have been broken, but her heart? Stronger than ever. Now, she's looking for a soft place to land—a home that matches her courage, her sweetness, and her unbreakable will to thrive. She’s affectionate, resilient, and full of that special spark only a true survivor can carry. She’s done the fighting. Now she just needs someone to fight for her. Are you the one who’ll give Gunnison the happy ending she so deeply deserves?
