My story

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

Meet Koa 🧡

At 12 years young, Koa is a gentle soul with a heart full of love and a serious passion for food. Once a street cat, he never wants to feel that uncertainty again—his biggest wish is simply a soft place to land and a kind hand to pet him.

Koa adores affection, and if you dare stop before he’s done, he’ll politely (and adorably) reach out a paw to pull your hand back for more. Mealtime is another highlight of his day—he gets so excited for his wet food that you might need to guard the plate from his enthusiasm!

He’s okay with other cats if introduced slowly and respectfully, but his feelings about dogs and kids are still unknown. Above all, Koa just wants a calm, loving home where he can soak up attention, enjoy his favorite meals, and never worry about the streets again.

Looking for a sweet, mellow BFF? <3
