Chunky

Meet Chunky, a laid-back nine-year-old Domestic Shorthair from Woodbridge, VA, whose calm, cuddly presence makes every day feel a little cozier. With her striking brown and white coat with black stripes and a personality that’s equal parts sass and sweetness, Chunky is the queen of relaxation—and she’s ready to share her chill vibe with a new family.

Chunky’s motto? Life’s best when you’ve got a comfy lap and a good snack. This medium-sized, 16-pound cuddle bug lives for quiet moments and simple joys. Whether she’s napping in a sunbeam or curling up on your lap (even if you’re holding a whole bowl of popcorn), she knows how to make herself right at home! Her affection comes on her terms, but once she chooses you as her snuggle buddy, you’ll feel like royalty.

Her daily routine is simple: food, naps, and a little bit of love. Despite her chill attitude, Chunky has just enough sass to make you laugh—especially when she’s casting judgmental glances during bath time. Don’t worry, though—she tolerates baths with grace (if not enthusiasm), choosing to give you a dignified stare rather than any fuss. While she does shed quite a bit, regular brushing keeps her coat looking its best, and she genuinely seems to enjoy the attention.

Chunky is vaccinated, spayed, and reliably litter-trained, making her an easygoing companion! While she’s a bit shy around new feline friends, with some time and patience, she’ll adjust. She thrives in a home where her caregivers are loving, attentive, and understanding of her low-key nature. As a bonus, she’s willing to travel for the right family, so even if you’re a bit farther away, don’t hesitate to reach out.

If you’re searching for a calm, affectionate cat who knows how to balance sass and snuggles, Chunky might be your perfect match. Reach out today to learn more about welcoming Chunky into your life!
