Like an Oreo dunked in sriracha, our Cookie Monster is sometimes sweet and sometimes spicy, a combo that sounds both intimidating and enticing. (And Cookie Monster can be both.) Once you get through that layer of peppery heat, you get to gratifying, sugary sweetness. (And once you pass Ms. Monster’s kindness test, she’ll be more inclined to reciprocate your friendship.)

How to win over Cookie Monster? Playtime and, of course, food. Although she doesn’t always welcome pats, Cookie Monster loves playing with wand toys and eating treats. If you catch her chowing down on Temptations, you might be reminded of a particular blue Muppet who chomps on Chips Ahoy. But, as she appreciates balance, Cookie Monster will happily counter all of those calories with some exercise. Grab her attention with the shiny ribbon of a toy, and she’ll swat to her heart’s content.

Cookie Monster can thrive with a patient human companion who will help her warm-up to her new home. (We can neither confirm nor deny that, once “warmed-up,” Cookie Monster exudes an aroma of gingerbread.) She’d love a person who has an affinity for sassy cats, but who will appreciate her even more once her hard shell melts away. Do you sound like a match?
