Chiquita is a sweet, sensitive girl who is still learning that the world can be a safe and beautiful place. She's discovering that love and affection can be wonderful things, and with a little patience and kindness, she's slowly learning to let her guard down and trust the people around her. Chiquita will need a special kind of home - one filled with understanding, gentle encouragement and people who know that the best things take time. She needs humans who will let her move at her own pace, respect her boundaries and show her through their actions that she is safe, loved and never needs to be rushed. But there's a curious little adventurer hiding beneath that nervous exterior! Chiquita enjoys exploring the world around her and would love to enjoy calm adventures with her people, taking in all the sights, sounds and smells at a pace that feels comfortable for her. Watching her confidence grow and seeing her discover new things will be such a rewarding experience for the lucky person who gets to be part of her journey. Chiquita may not be the kind of girl who runs straight into your arms, but her journey towards trust is what makes her so special. She deserves someone who will celebrate the little wins, be patient through the wobbly moments and love her for exactly who she is.
