My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Checkers is a little sweetheart who suffers from a little anxiety. We explored many things until we found what she needed. She flourished with some consistency, love, patience, and her meds. She is slow to warm up to their cats but with proper introduction and time she will quickly become a best friend. She loves to play with her foster siblings. Ita amazing what a good family, shelter, love and kindness will do for a anxious kitten. This girl is ready to find her forever home to flourish in. You would be so fortunate to have checkers in your life.
