About Duckie

Meet Duckie! This sweet girl is looking for a quieter home, away from the hustle and bustle she once lived in. Duckie was adopted as a kitten but returned after her family welcomed three young children, which proved to be overwhelming for her. She formed a close bond with her best friend, Poppet, whom she was thrown together with by fate. This pair has become inseparable. Duckie can be a little shy initially but warms up quickly, especially when she has Poppet by her side. Both love to be brushed and enjoy watching birds from their perch by the window. While Duckie doesn’t have any special dietary needs, it's worth noting that Poppet does require prescription food for his urinary health. If you're interested in meeting Duckie, please consider filling out an application today. Let's make it official, apply to adopt!
