My story

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

Hi there, my name is Coqui! I came from a home with a large influx of cats. Because of my background, I may be shy and reserved. With time, they can come out of their shell as they adjust to life outside of the hoarding environment. They may be curious about their surroundings but can be startled by sudden movements or loud noises. They will warm up to the best of their abilities with patience, gentle encouragement, and working at their own pace.

Coqui is an adult cat that may not have had many interactions with humans from an early age. He is apprehensive of people and while showing no aggressive behaviors, he does attempt to flee or avoid human contact. It is difficult to predict if he will respond to socialization but we recommend offering high value treats and food to help build a positive association to humans. Please be mindful that older cats will require more time and skill in order for them to be comfortable around people. Due to the behaviors seen in the care center, we feel that this cat will do best in an experienced, adult only home.
