Niko 's Story

Niko has had a couple of meet & greets with families that have children, and we realized pretty quickly that he will do best in a home with older teens (children 16+) or adults.<br/><br/>Niko is very attached to his foster mom (which is completely normal), and meet & greets are tough for him. He is a very sweet, loving boy who truly craves human attention—but he needs time to feel safe and comfortable, and he does best when introductions are slow and on his terms.<br/><br/>Niko is not feral and not undersocialized—he simply has a timid personality at first. Niko came from a hoarding situation, and cats from those environments often haven’t had consistent one-on-one attention, so it can take them a bit longer to trust and settle in.<br/><br/>If you’re a patient, gentle home willing to go slow, Niko will reward you with a very special bond. 🐾<br/><br/>This handsome boy is 4. <br/><br/>Niko ideal home is a quiet, low-traffic household with someone who is cat-savvy, patient, and understanding. He needs an adopter who will let Niko settle in at his own pace—no rushing, no pressure—just gentle consistency and time to build trust.<br/><br/>Niko can live with another mellow cat or could go solo if someone is home a lot ❤️<br/><br/>If interested in adopting Niko please fill out an application on our website <br/><br/>https://www.enfieldcommunitycatproject.com/
