Would you like the lovely Lexi?
They were four pregnant mums that the Upper Hutt Animal Rescue Society took out of a house of 15 cats. They were put into foster care to have their kittens and also to get used to humans. They had seen humans, but had never been patted or cuddled. They had lived outside and never really got enough food. Well that changed in their foster homes. Lexie is one of those mums.
Lexi’s previous foster carer taught Lexie how to allow humans to pat her and to not be scared being around humans.
She went back to the Haven ready for adoption. But she really couldn’t cope with being up there and withdrew into her shell. So Lexie has gone to another foster home and what a change. She is fantastic. She loves to be patted and will come when you call (well sometimes – definitely if she wants food – ha ha). She loves her toys – and she loves all the other cats’ toys.
She wanders around the house and likes being in the room with the humans. She is ready for her forever home.
Although two young children (2 and 4 yrs) visited for a couple of weeks ago. The noise and running around was not Lexie’s idea of a good time. She would be better suited to a home with a couple, (or single person), and if there were children – they would need to be older children.
She has the softest meow – but loud purr and is adorable.
If you are interested in visiting Lexie, please call the Haven on 04-526 2672 and they can arrange a visit. She is currently being fostered in Lower Hutt.
