Make their next chapter their best one yet. Cooper is a gentle soul who has overcome a lot in his young life. Once surviving by scavenging food at a truck parking lot, he was wary and frightened until a kind human intervened and got him safely to the rescue. Now about 2 years old, Cooper still carries a hint of caution but has blossomed into a loving and sweet companion once he knows you. His favorite thing is to be brushed—a surefire way to his heart! Cooper thrives in calm spaces and would do best with gentle, older children who can respect his need for quiet and slow introductions. He is also very sweet with other cats, particularly those who are laid back, and would be happiest with a feline friend for company. Bullying or overly energetic companions may overwhelm him, so a calm buddy is ideal. Neutered, vaccinated, a litter box pro, and a good eater, Cooper is ready for a home where he will feel truly safe and loved. If you understand the importance of patience and compassion, Cooper may be the ideal cat to complete your family. Your new best friend is just one click away.
