Meet Twinkie – A Gentle Soul with a Loving Heart

I may be a little shy when we first meet—but don’t let that fool you! Give me just a couple of days to settle in, and you’ll see the real me: a total sweetheart with a big, playful personality and a whole lot of love to give.

Once I feel safe, I’ll be by your side (or under your feet!) wherever you go. I’m what you'd call people-motivated—I just really love being with my humans.

I get along with other animals just fine, but honestly, people are my favorite. I’m gentle, affectionate, and playful—especially with younger kids! I’m basically the perfect tiny entertainer. Got toys? Great! Got scratch pads? Even better! I have 4 or 5 in my foster home and use them all the time. In the evenings, I chase a laser toy to burn off some energy, but I can also keep myself busy if you're not around.

💬 This is what my foster says about me:
"Twinkie is a total goofball and a big-hearted shadow. She's always near us, loves to play, and has the quirkiest, most lovable personality. She's a handful—in the best possible way."

And guess what? My adoption fee is sponsored, which means someone already knows I’m priceless. All I need now is you.

History
Twinkie was transferred to Pets In Need from one of our partner shelters in the Central Valley.
