Shes one of 7 kittens. She my shy one. She can be very funny She is litter trained.Born july 21st

ChChiChi has been with me and my family from two months old. She is now five years old and at the time that I did not think my 3-Month-Old son would be autistic come to find out I have two autistic children that take up most of my time. Im looking to get her a batter because she lives out of my room. She refuses to come out of my room. Now that the boys are older, my house is loud and I think she would do better in a quiet home. She has been around cats and dogs but wants nothing to do with them. She's also missing her back leg due to her umbilical cord was wrapped around her leg and was removed when she was only a day old. She gets around fine. I would prefer a house that had more carpeting just to give her the stability from walking. She is very loving and likes to cuddle and make biscuits, she is a very easy going cat, just likes her privacy. But once I sit down she's all over me and wants affection. She really doesn't play with toys, just likes to watch the birds.

Meet Luna — A Playful, Social Girl With a Big Heart and a Big Personality Luna is an active, affectionate, and wonderfully expressive cat who brings energy and charm into every room she enters. She’s social with strangers, curious about new people, and loves being part of the daily rhythm of a home. When she trusts you, she becomes a deeply loving companion — greeting you at the door with excited meows, following you from room to room, and curling up on your lap for cozy moments. Personality & Temperament Luna is: Very social with new people Affectionate once she trusts you Playful, energetic, and full of life A lap cat with her chosen person Vocal and expressive — she loves to “talk” to you Litter trained, though she may need help adjusting to a new home She does not enjoy being picked up or carried and will communicate her boundaries clearly. She’s a cat who appreciates respect, predictability, and a person who understands feline body language. Play Style & Activity Level Luna is a highenergy, playful cat who thrives with daily engagement. She loves: Chew toys Wand toys she can chase and “hunt” Interactive play sessions Attention and affection from her person She’s the type of cat who enjoys being involved — she’ll follow you around, supervise your tasks, and stay close by throughout the day. Behavior Notes & Progress Luna used to become overstimulated easily during petting and would give small warning bites to ask for space. Over the past 2–3 months, she has made significant progress, with these moments decreasing to just a few times a week. Her bites have always been minor and never required medical care. She needs: A patient adopter who understands cat boundaries Predictable routines Time to build trust Respect for her signals during petting Once she feels safe, she becomes incredibly affectionate — lounging beside you, sitting on your lap, and seeking out gentle pets. Other Animals Dogs: Luna previously lived with a dog and can adjust well with slow introductions. Cats: Her behavior with other cats is unknown, so any introductions should be gradual and structured. Children Not suitable for children under 6 (she's scared of children)                                Okay with teenagers who understand cat behavior and boundaries Food & Preferences Luna is delightfully particular: Only loves chicken wet food — one can twice a day                   Ideal Home Luna will thrive in a home with: A predictable schedule Consistent days off or time at home An adopter who enjoys interactive play Someone patient, catsavvy, and respectful of boundaries Older kids, teens, or adults only She is okay with a dog, may or may not enjoy another cat, and will flourish with someone who appreciates her mix of independence, affection, and playful spirit. Why You’ll Love Luna Luna is a cat who bonds deeply. She’s expressive, funny, affectionate, and full of personality. She greets you at the door, shadows you throughout the day, and becomes a loyal companion once she feels safe. She needs someone who understands her, respects her boundaries, and enjoys an active, engaging cat — and in return, she offers love, companionship, and endless charm.   The suggested adoption donation for Luna is $85, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training). Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization meaning that part of your donation MAY be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. We are a 100% volunteer rescue committed to giving animals a second chance at life. All donations go toward that mission. Adoption fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. In 2022 alone, we provided animal Healthcare totaling over $399,000 covered mainly through adoption fees.Information about the adoption process: All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application has completed our prescreen steps, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver.Please Note: We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks, and a Home Visit (Virtual in some cases) during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months. To learn about Muddy Paws Last Chance Rescue or donate to our animals, please visit our website at MuddyPawsSecondChanceRescue.com or our Facebook Page Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue Inc.Please Note: A Courtesy Post designates that an animal is still in the home of its owner and not in a Muddy Paws foster. This means that our exposure to the animal is limited since we only assist the owner in finding a new home for their pet. From time to time, owners find a new furever home for their pets outside of Muddy Paws Last Chance Rescue, and there is a delay in removing them from our site. We apologize if the Courtesy Post you apply to adopt is unavailable for adoption. ##2821838##
