About Athena D

Meet Athena D! If you're looking for a furry little shadow who will follow you everywhere, Athena is your girl. This sweet cuddle bug loves her people and wants to be wherever they are. If you stop in your tracks, she's right behind you. Sit down, and she'll be ready for snuggles. Can't reach her? No worries—she’ll let you know with a little bark. Athena has a perfect mix of calm and playful energy. She enjoys romping around with her sisters and the resident dog, playing tug-of-war, and chasing her siblings. After playtime, she’s happiest curled up beside her humans, showering them with kisses—she believes there’s never too much affection. When it’s time to rest, Athena is a great sleeper, settling in quietly for the night. Her naps are entertaining; she snores, dreams, and occasionally sleeps with her eyelids partly open. Athena gets along well with other pets and children. She enjoys playtime with the resident dog and generally leaves the cats alone, though a fast-moving cat might coax her into a chase. With a little guidance, she’ll understand that cats aren’t playmates. Although she’s friendly, she’s still building confidence around new people; giving her space to approach at her own pace works best. Currently, Athena knows how to sit and is working on recall and other commands, motivated by food. She’s also getting used to leash training. Once a shy girl, she’s becoming a loving companion ready to be someone’s best friend. If you want a loyal little shadow who loves to cuddle, Athena is ready to follow you home!
