My story

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

Meet Checkers, a sophisticated tuxedo lady who manages to be both a refined socialite and a professional snack-enthusiast! 🐾 This affectionate girl is the ultimate greeter; she'll emerge from her den with a high-curled tail and a series of adorable "pigeon-like" coos just to offer you a hearty forehead-bonk and a purr-filled face rub. While she's a true social butterfly who leans into every chin scratch and back pet, her heart truly belongs to the finer things in life-specifically catnip-infused toys and a high-quality Churu! 🐟 Checkers has a charmingly independent streak, often retreating for a graceful post-cuddle stretch or a private snack session once she's had her fill of love. If you're looking for a gentle, talkative companion who balances her "big stretches" with deep affection (and maybe a little extra treat-motivation), Checkers is ready to move her paws into your heart! ♟️✨
