My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

DOB: July 9th 2024

I am a shy but adorable girl with a custom-designed coat with socks to match.

I have been on a journey with my foster family, I am starting to get the hang of this whole being a cat thing. I'm still much more comfortable with my older cat foster brother, he's teaching me to play and how to trust the humans in the house. I’m nervous but learning fast with him teaching me!

I still don't like it when they (the humans) come up to me too quickly so I run away, but if they approach slowly it’s less scary. I love playing with my foster brother and with my humans. Even though I am shy about being on the couch with them. However, each interaction still feels new to me so don't be surprised if I bolt away from you before you get a chance. It's confusing for me so you need to be patient and consistent.

As I work to build my confidence I would require a house that respects my boundaries and has a lot of patience with me and my ideal family fit would be a relatively quiet house with, and no young children or dogs.

I am taking special medicine that helps with my stress and anxiety. I don’t like taking pills, but my humans put them in delicious treats that I love! The medicine definitely makes me braver, and sometimes I’ll follow my humans around to keep an eye on them.

Coco is on a strict prescription urinary diet which is purchased at the vet clinic (due to high urinary pH). Coco is also on 2 medications that can be reassessed by the vet in a few months, she takes the pills in pill pockets which can be purchased at the pet food store. Due to her prescription diet, she needs to be the only cat in the home.
