About Chipmunk

Meet Chipmunk, a lovely adult female cat looking for a serene and understanding home. Along with her bonded partner, Possum, Chipmunk is adjusting to life in a shelter after losing her previous home. Both cats have been quite nervous, and they need a quiet environment where they can feel safe and gradually regain their confidence. Chipmunk may be shy initially, but with your patience and love, she'll slowly begin to show her true character. She and Possum come as a pair, so they will need to stay together in a household that can give them the time they need to adapt. Sometimes the most beautiful relationships develop quietly, and these two deserve every opportunity to flourish once more. They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
