Tako is an adorable, sweet girl that is very shy and reserved. She likes her own space, and prefers quiet solitude with a place to hide if she becomes unsettled. Tako needs to be in a quiet home with a longhair cat experienced adopter who will take the time and patience to gain her trust. She is a one person cat that prefers to not be picked up and held. She does enjoy being brushed and getting petted occasionally, on her own terms, by someone she loves and trusts. She tends to freeze and shut down when she is handled by others. Tako would do best with someone that has the time to brush her several times a week.
Unfortunately Tako hasn’t adjusted well to the current family dynamics despite efforts to help her overcome fears and anxiety. Her present owner has dedicated a whole room in the house to help keep her comfortable. She hides if she is uncertain or scared, becomes reluctant to interaction resulting in her fur matting to the point she requires a shave about once a year.
Her owner believes she would be happier in a smaller home with less people, preferably a single person or older couple. Because is very shy and prefers to be in quiet places, we don’t think she will do well in a household with high levels of activity with children or frequent visitors coming and going.
Tako is an indoor only cat that likes to play with toy mice and cat teasers/wands and doesn’t seem to mind dogs or other cats. She a healthy cat. Her 3 year Vaccine booster is due November 16, 2024. Tako likes Blue Buffalo dry kibble. She is accustomed to a large open litterbox that is tended to regularly twice a day.
Tako needs a nurturing longhair cat lover that will take her into their heart, gain her confidence and trust to fully become the adoring, affectionate kitty she is meant to be. If you have the quiet environment she needs, along with the loving patience to help Tako overcome her shyness, she will unfold to be your heart and soul cat companion that will love you forever and always.
TAKO is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, eats dry food, and is litterbox perfect.
She currently lives with her owner in Rancho Cordova.
Purebreds Plus Cat Rescue is dedicated to matching exceptional cats with qualified adopters who will cherish their pet and create an ideal forever home.
