Fun Facts:
Nairobi has a nose that never quits and a heart that melts the moment you meet his gentle eyes. He’ll always follow the scent trail—especially if it leads to food—but he’s just as quick to lean in for pets and affection. With soft fur and a sweet, attentive nature, he wins people over instantly.
