Rocco's Story

At 9 years old, Rocco has truly mastered the art of chill. This low-energy gent LOVES toys-not just playing with them, but sitting with them, napping with them, and carrying them like prized possessions. He's a vocal guy with a big heart, a love for snacks, and a serious cuddling game once he knows you.<br/><br/>Rocco walks great on a leash, lives for affection, and is happiest in a calm home where he can be your one and only. He's not a fan of other pets, and new people can take a minute to warm up to, but once he does, he's yours forever.<br/><br/>He's available as a foster-to-adopt, and his adoption fee is fully waived thanks to the Danny Boy Adoption Fund. If you've got a quiet home and a toy basket to spare, Rocco just might be your perfect match.
