Checkers's Story

Checkers is a sweet, gentle cat who enjoys the quiet life. They are semi‐social-meaning they're comfortable sharing space with people, but they prefer affection on their own terms. They like to observe from a distance at first, then warm up slowly as they learn to trust.<br/>This kitty does best with patient humans who let them set the pace. Once comfortable, they may come nearby for treats, enjoy gentle pets, or nap in the same room as you.

All dogs and cats leave here spayed or neutered and with complete vaccines and a microchip.
