Here's what the humans have to say about me:
In a galaxy far far away, this perfect little creature was born. He graced a human family with his magical presence for a short time but then ended up at the shelter at a mere 12 weeks old. We knew this rare being was something to behold; something truly special, so we scooped him up and named him Wookie. After all, he’s clearly a descendent of the great Chewbacca. Mr. Fuzzy Paws (yes, he does regularly have his feet in first position for all you ballet gurus out there) had a small cherry eye (the third eyelid was slightly protruding from the eye) when he first came into rescue so we got that all fixed up and now he is even cuter, if that is even possible. The Wook has proven to be all things wonderful and we think he will flourish in any home that appreciates his comical, silly, and extremely sweet personality. He’s done well with canine friends of all sizes (since there are no fellow galactical creatures around, he happily plays with dogs) and kiddos too. Food, toys, full body wiggling when he sees people and being cradled like a baby are among his favorite things. Our mini Chewy is rocking his crate training and making huge strides in the housebreaking department...hey, it’s hard when it’s so cold outside! Now all he needs is his forever earthly home. Wookie is about 4 months old, a perfect 12 lbs. and neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. May the force be with you should you try to resist that face.
