Background
Goro is a young blue russian cat that is Eri Kisaki's pet. He wanders in Kisaki Law Office and also, in Eri's home but was a few times brought to Mouri detective agency so Ran could take care of him. He is the keyhole character for volume 74 that he gained after a popular vote organized by Gosho himself. Eri once had another tomcat that was named Goro but it died because of an illness. So she got from a friend another one whom she gave the same name. He also appeared in a video on a video sharing site with the same fashion as Youtube while he was playing with a flower pot.
Personality
Goro is a shy cat more shy than Taii and is cute. He only likes to play with his relatives and people he is accustomed to. He was once tempted by a stranger who put catnip to lure him but after a few minutes, the catnip effect wore off. He doesn't like to interact with others and run from strangers. He likes the care provided by Ran, Eri and Midori. He has a strong sense of protection after he tried to stop kidnappers to take Eri[1]. He is tempted to go on treats and candies.
Appearance
Goro is a small and cute russian blue cat with huge turquoise eyes and small ears. He has huge paws with big claws making it easy for him to climb on walls.
