Pet of the Month for December
Introducing Simba-Coco!
Simba - Coco is just the most amazing cat! He is a Bengal, but looks more like a very large, beautiful, handsome Tabby cat. He is loved and cherished by his forever family.
He is very smart and loves to go on hikes and swim! Simba - Coco is an indoor only house cat, who has a deluxe outdoor den with independent access. He loves to go on hikes on his leash. He is such a big cat that his leash and harness are for a small poodle.
Simba - Coco loves to swim. Yes, a swimming cat! We must be careful when filling up the bathtub to keep the door closed, as otherwise he just jumps in the tub. His forever family has taken him for hikes around a lake, and he has gone swimming in the lake.
Beware of the doors! Simba – Coco is such a smart cat; he knows how to open doors. He stretches his long body up, and grabs the doorknobs with his paws, and turns the doorknobs. So far, he has not figured out how to unlock a door, but if the door is not locked, the cat will open it.
Unfortunately, Simba – Coco had a rough start to his life. When he was about a year old, he was discovered as homeless and starving on the cold streets of Prince George in the middle of winter, by the Prince George SPCA. He was then shipped down to the West Vancouver SPCA, where he was adopted by his new loving, forever family. Clearly, he had been abused by his first Prince George guardian, and it took him a long time to trust his new forever family in North Van.
Simba – Coco is now the most incredibly loving and trusting cat, and he loves to curl up on laps and purr loudly.
Simba – Coco also loves going to see Janice at the North Shore Vet, for his bi-monthly manicures / pedicures. He loudly purrs in the car and is always delighted to go to the Vet.
And we love seeing him too!
