Chickpea

I'm Chickpea, and it's a fitting name as I'm shaped a bit like one! I may be plump, but I say it's just all the more kitty cat to love. But real talk, I'm looking for a bestie that wants to get fit and healthy together so I can be the best version of myself. Right now, I need a bit of help with grooming (it's not my fault I can't reach my back end, what do I look like, a contortionist?!) but with a weight loss plan in place, I'll be a new version of myself in no time. I'm a sweet-as-sugar lady who loves a bum scratch or chin scritch, and although at times a bit skittish, I love affection. I'm excited to find a home with equal parts couch snuggles and playtime, and promise to be an easygoing companion.

Do I Need Special Care?: One of my eyes has chronic discharge. This may be related to a prior resolved respiratory illness or a structural issue. My eye is comfortable (no signs of conjunctivitis, ulcers/scratches, infection, or change in vision) and I don't require any specific treatments at this time. My adopter may wish to wipe my eye twice daily to avoid tear staining or any crusty buildup.
