Roko is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet This Week

He's a big cat.

Roko is a 5-year-old, 20-pound, male, Domestic Short Hair cat with a Black and White coat.

He was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society from a local rescue partner through Friends of County Animal Shelters (FOCAS.)

Roko lived with his family for five years. Now they moved. They couldn’t take Roko along, so they returned him.

Twenty pounds is a big cat. He’s lost a few pounds. With daily playtime and encouragement from his new family, Roko will lose a few more pounds.

He likes to hide, then have a good cuddle. Also, Roko loves “head boops.”
