Medically, Caprese is apparently healthy Caprese arrived at MACC as a stray with no known history. While in care, Caprese has been observed to be mouthy and has a low threshold for arousal. Noted to take treats with a hard mouth and fixate on inanimate objects such as the hose. Due to the detailed behavior, we recommend an experienced adult only home. What my friends at ACC say about me: My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet! I would appreciate slow introductions to new people and places to help me feel safe. I am playful and cute! I will need daily physical activity to keep me healthy and happy!
