"RUSTY" 3.5yr old Torteshelle Looking For Her Forever Home
We are the foster family of this beautiful lady "Rusty" while we were on our rural dairy farming job then the elderly lady who rescued her passed away and I tried taking on finding her forever homes to no luck so we left it for awhile but now its time to try again as we have moved into town and she misses the quiet country life.
In her 3 years with us she has gotten used our young children but she prefer the older quiet more retired life as it gets a bit too much with the hustle and bustle of kids, maybe a grandparent is in need of a companion then Rusty is the girl for them. She doesnt like being held much but is always keen for a smoochy pat (especially of foods imvolved) before curling to sleep in a favourite part on a couch.
She is desexed, microchipped and registered on NZCAR.
She has had her yearly other vacs except behind in this years one.
She has never had bad health with us.
She is HIV+ meaning she has a lower than normal immune system.
But dont let that fool you she is smoochy, lovable and loves exploring her local areas or happily sleep on the couch at home.
If you or anyone you know is interested in adopting her, then please email me on Mummynae@hotmail.co.nz or private message me here to discuss if you have the perfect forever home for her.
