Rescue:

There was a colony of cats found behind a manufacturing building in town. The colony had been
cared for by the staff, who fed them daily and even provided insulated cat houses for them. The
nice thing was that they were all friendly, but the sad thing was the colony was growing. A company
memo was sent out, saying that they had consulted with the city shelter who said to stop feeding
the cats. That is sad and wrong. Rescuing them is the answer. Coyotes were also running through
the area often and sometimes within 10 feet of nearby humans. They definitely caused many of the
cats to disappear. The colony cats names all start with the letter K, and this includes Koko. Pet
Patrol volunteers and the woman who was feeding the cats were braved the elements daily to
ensure this colony was looked after and brought into care.

Personality:

Koko arrived at the shelter wary and withdrawn, having spent much of her life simply trying to
survive. Once given the chance to experience safety and care, she embraced it wholeheartedly. In
her foster home, she learned that people could be trusted—first accepting food from their hands,
then gentle pets, and eventually full affection. Over time, Koko began to play for the first time in her
life, discovering the joy of toys and the companionship of other cats. Now, she’s blossomed into a
loving, social, and playful girl who follows her foster family around, rubbing against their legs and
greeting them eagerly at the door. When called, she comes running for affection, rolling on the floor
and purring with delight. Koko has truly reclaimed her kittenhood and is ready for a home where
she’ll be cherished and adored. Koko is ready to be adopted into her forever home. One that will
welcome her into the family and keep her safely indoors.
