This handsome fella is Coco, and he is finally ready to find his forever home.  He came to us along with several other cats – very poorly and suffering from an horrific calici virus flare up – and needing an urgent dental to make him comfortable. Thankfully – he is now feeling so much better and happier now he’s had medical care, time, rest and has been signed off by our vet as being ready to find his new forever home!

Coco is a super friendly and confident boy and has been from the day he arrived – even when he felt rubbish-he never let it get him down. He is so fun to be around! He adores human company and loves to have lots of fusses and cuddles with everyone he meets! He isn’t that playful at the minute, but we are slowly teaching him that toys and interactive games – can be fun and a good way to channel his energy – in a positive way. His love for human contact can sometimes make him a little overstimulated and he can forget he has claws at times – but we know he’s not been mean he just doesn’t realise.

We are looking for an indoor home where there are no other cats. As he is a flu carrier, it’s very likely he will have flu flare ups from time to time, so it is very important that her new family have either experienced owning a flu cat or have done research into what this entails. They can live a happy and normal life but additional stresses like changes in routine, changes in the home etc could cause him to have a flare and need vet support. He will also need monitoring at his yearly vet checks for vaccinations with the adopters’ vets.

We think he could live with children of secondary school age and over as long as everyone is comfortable, and any children can understand him especially when he gets a little over stimulated and needs a minute.
