Kiko’s Story
“My partner and I were ready to adopt after losing our previous pet When I first saw Kiko, I immediately fell in love with her petite size, soft and weird meow, curly whiskers, and affectionate nature
Kiko adjusted quickly and became a cherished part of our family She is cuddly and affectionate, with a playful and inquisitive personality Kiko loves hiding elastic bands, playing pranks, and having long ‘conversations’ with us She completely stole our hearts.
She has been an exceptional emotional support through the past year. Anytime that we have experienced grief, upset, or sadness, she has come running, ready to cuddle and sit on our lap and comfort us. She stayed by my side after surgery and now snuggles protectively as we expect our first child.
We can't wait for Kiko to meet the baby and are confident they'll be wonderful siblings. Kiko is as much a part of our family as any human member, and we couldn't imagine life without her” - Amy and Nick
