My story

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

Meet Chico, a resilient 10-year-old neutered male who found himself homeless after his owner's passing. Despite facing partial blindness, Chico gracefully navigates his surroundings with the help of his trusty Halo Harness, ensuring his safety. This 9.5-pound bundle of pure love may be unable to see all the dangers outside, but he compensates with an abundance of affection and warmth. Chico, microchipped and up-to-date on vaccinations, yearns for a loving home to call his own—a place where he can continue being the delightful love-bug he truly is.
