True to her name, Cleopatra is a stunning tortoise shell cat who came in as a transfer from one of Animal Services’ rescue partners. Sassy, with an outsized Elizabeth Taylor attitude, Cleopatra exited her limo – err, cat carrier – greeted the Shelter team and immediately sashayed directly to the closest bar food dish!

Cut to her next scene — after completing some medically necessary dental work (provided through the generosity of Friends), Cleopatra was ready for her closeup with her new adoptive family!
