Needing to rehome a cat
Neighbourly is my last resort. I need to find a home for Tully Gumble. I rescued her when she was about 6 wks old, she is now 16months. She is speyed, microchipped, vaccinated and defleaed.
I house trained her immediately as had to keep her inside until I could get her speyed.
Shortly I will have no where to live, so am having to find house sits, majority do not allow pets.
She is shy so will take a week or so to get used to a new environment. She would do well with an older lady who wants a talkative companion, or an older gentle couple. She is spoilt, sleeps inside at night and always follows me around telling me stories.
