  Most people have never met a Sokoke. They’re one of the rarest cat types in the world — semi‑feral in origin, fiercely intelligent, and famously selective about their affections. And then there’s Kokee , our resident Sokoke sovereign, who has decided that I am her chosen human… and absolutely no one else. 🌿 A Breed Built on Instinct Sokokes come from the coastal forests of Kenya, and they’ve kept much of their wild wiring: hyper‑alert quick to react independent to the core deeply bonded to one person They’re not “high‑strung” — they’re high‑attuned .
