My story

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

Copito is a charming, snow-white gentleman with a flair for both cuddles and style!

His soft white coat is accented by the most adorable black spot on the side of his head (like a tiny French beret!) and a long, expressive black tail that happily gives away his playful moods. Copito is a true snuggle lover who enjoys curling up near his people for pets, naps, and bedtime companionship; he especially loves sleeping close to his humans. He’s usually a quiet guy, communicating his happiness with a deep, rumbly purr, though he’s not shy about speaking up when it’s time for dinner!

While Copito may be briefly shy when meeting new people, a little patience, a tasty treat, or some playtime with his favorite toys quickly brings out his affectionate, fun-loving personality. He would thrive in a home looking for a gentle, loving companion who enjoys cozy togetherness and playful moments.

If you are interested in adopting Copito, please email Biff@BiffandPaula.com to arrange an initial meet and greet with the pet’s foster parent or a staff member. They will reply to you within 24-48 hours.
