She’s a senior with a knack for napping but still surprises with bursts of playful energy and spontaneous zoomies. At her core, she craves simple joys—soft places to curl up, people who appreciate her independent streak, and a little space when she gets excited. She sleeps soundly through the night and doesn’t mind alone time, making her a solid fit for folks who aren’t home 24/7. Daniela is affectionate in the most enthusiastic way—her signature “lunge-nibble” kiss is pure excitement, not aggression, but would be best matched with adults or older kids who find her antics endearing.

Daniela is looking for a home that appreciates her quirky affection and respects her senior pace. A comfy couch, a bit of patience, and someone who admires a comeback story—she’s ready for retirement in Owatonna, MN. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
