Polydactyl Rescue Cat Finds New Home

A shy rescue cat named Chicken, who has six toes on each paw, was adopted by Paulina after two previous adoption attempts failed. Chicken, an American Curl with distinctive curled ears and a bright orange-cream coat, quickly settled into his new home. He is very vocal about food, often reminding his owner when meals are due. Chicken enjoys cuddling only on his terms; he prefers to approach for affection after being given space. He also likes sleeping beside Paulina, but only when he chooses to join her in bed. New visitors often find him shy, backing away and avoiding petting. When Paulina returns home late, Chicken follows her around and sometimes jumps high against her thigh to get attention.
