Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Chicka is a sweetheart. She loves snuggling on your lap and being close to you. She has her playful side too, she likes to "kill" stuffed toys. This darling little girl is just waiting for her forever home!
Chicka has some special needs. When Chicka came to us, she needed to have her eye removed due to glaucoma. It was bulging with the fluid behind it and was causing her pain. Sadly, the vet says that her vision in the other eye has been affected as well. She can probably see light and shadow, and contrasting shapes. She needs a home that is clam and can deal with her needing help on some things. She has learned her way around her foster home just fine and she even jumps on the sofa. She can go up stairs, but is not comfortable going down them. Thankfully she is easy to carry. Chicka needs a home that can keep her safe from falls.
She would prefer a home without children, as the noise and fast movements startle her.
Chicka needs a fenced yard to keep her safe. She doesn't like being left outside alone and will bark if she isn't brought in. She has been working well on her housebreaking but will need patience and some training in her new home while she is learning.
Chicka is ok with other dogs and cats as long as they respect her space and don't get in her face.
This sweetheart is just wanting a home to call her own that will love and care for her for the rest of her life.
