About Pico
Pico is a lovable handful: he’s bursting with energy, loves to play, and won’t turn down a nap in the sun. He’s got a soft spot for good company and a solid neck rub. After spending his early years outdoors, Pico has adapted smoothly to the comforts of indoor life. Living with FIV hasn’t slowed him down—he’s shared a home with two FIV-negative cats peacefully for years. Pico bonds closely with playful, submissive cats like his buddy Lithi, but hasn’t matched well with older, less playful felines. He’s always avoided conflict and handles himself respectfully. Though Pico currently lives around dogs, he’d rather not. A cat-only, indoor home with playful companions will suit him best. At first, he’s skittish, but once he trusts you, he becomes an affectionate pet-seeker. Pico is easily handled at the vet, neutered, healthy, and current on all vaccines. He must remain inside due to his FIV status and would thrive with a thoughtful adopter who understands his preferences. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
