Checkers, who also answers to Molly, is an independent cat who takes pride in her dual names and routines. She’s deeply food motivated, especially when it comes to treats and her daily wet food. Staff at the shelter know she works on her own schedule, offering affection on her terms once you earn it. Checkers manages daily medication for hyperthyroidism well, with her condition stable and her willingness to take meds mixed into her favorite meals. She would do best as the only cat or with another mellow, respectful feline. Dogs are out—Checkers isn’t shy about making her feelings known and prefers a dog-free home. She’s not looking for a place with children, just somewhere she can do things her way and be appreciated for her quirks. Ready to offer a soft landing to a senior with character? Checkers is microchipped, spayed, vaccinated, and has received flea treatment and deworming. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
