Ideal Home / Adopter:I’m looking for a calm, cozy forever home where I can be adored like the royalty I am. Somewhere with soft blankets, tasty snacks, and a lap or two to call my own. Bonus points if there are no cats trying to stage a cuddle coup. A quiet home with older kids would be perfect.
Personality:Hola, I'm Lizzy! I'm a 12-year-old chunky Chi diva with a heart full of sassitude and love! I was found strutting through the streets of Southwest Columbus, clearly on an adventure (but probably in need of a GPS and a snack).
When I was rescued, I was in pretty rough shape. My toenails were gnarled, my hair was matted with dead fur, and I was definitely not feeling like my fabulous self. My temporary family says I’m “overweight” — rude... but I swear I dropped a pound the moment foster mama brushed me. Instant glow-up, baby! Now that I’m getting proper love and care, I’m making big strides with both my weight and my “bossy girl behavior.”
Let’s talk personality: I’m a professional cuddler, world-class couch potato, and deeply committed to loving my humans. I give lots of kisses and demand belly rubs on the regular.
Quirks & Perks:
I do some alert barking (a girl’s gotta keep the household informed!), but I’m easily redirected, especially with treats.
I’m treat-motivated, but I have refined tastes: no stinky bones, please. I prefer soft, tasty, easy-to-chew goodies.
Potty time? I’m flexible. I’ll go outside or use pee pads because I'm a lady.
I’ve got a big, fluffy coat, which means I can overheat easily. I need a home with good air conditioning in the summer because I do get a little huffy-puffy if I get too hot.
