She was rescued from Jeongeup Shelter in South Korea shortly before euthanasia and has blossomed into a calm, quiet, deeply gentle companion who enjoys peaceful daily life with her people. 🌿 Personality Udon is naturally calm and soft-natured. She may initially appear slightly shy in new environments, but once she settles in, she quietly seeks affection and gently approaches for more pets and attention.
