Adoption information
About Kiki (with Nemo)
Kiki is a very shy, sensitive little kitten who is still learning that the world is safe. She looks to Nemo for comfort and confidence, following his lead and feeling more secure when he’s nearby. Although timid at first, she has a playful streak and a gentle nature that shines through once she feels comfortable.
She can be a little hissy when scared, but she never lashes out or scratches. Her reactions come from fear, not aggression, and she is easily soothed with time and patience. Kiki is independent, enjoys doing her own thing, and loves exploring quiet spaces where she can hide, relax, and observe.
