Kitten available!
Meet possum.
Approx 6 months.
** This is a foster-to-adopt situation **
Up until 3 months ago this sweet girl was living rough with her brother milo, they were taken in by a lady who cared from them and then they came to me.
Possum escaped my room and was living under my bathtub for 2 ish weeks.
Possum and milo were reunited but milo started bullying her so the decision was made to split them up.
Possum has absolutely blossomed!
She is still very timid and will need a very quiet household, she loves cuddles and belly rubs, she doesn't mind being picked up and carried and she loves lounging on the bed while watching tv!
Her ideal home has no pets and no children, possibly one female cat.
She will be vaccinated, desexed and Microchipped.
Her adoption cost is $230.
Six tips for improving security around your home
1) Improve outdoor lighting
Ensure that streets, driveways, and front yards are well-lit. Motion-sensor lights around homes deter trespassers by reducing hiding spots and illuminating their movements.
2) Trim your trees
Overgrown shrubs and trees provide cover for intruders. Keeping them well-trimmed around windows and doors improves visibility and reduces potential hiding spots.
3) Secure Entry Points
Ensure doors, windows, and gates are always closed when you are away from the house. Upgrade to more secure locks, deadbolts, or even smart locks for added protection.
4) Add a security camera
Place security cameras in the main entry points to your home. Doorbell cameras are also relatively cheap and a great way to keep track of who is visiting your home when you aren't there.
5) Start a Neighborhood Watch Program
You could reach out to members on Neighbourly to form a group of neighbors who can regularly keep an eye out for suspicious activity and report it. You could also check with Neighbourhood Support to see what is existing in your area.
6) Introduce yourself to your neighbours
The closer you are to your neighbors, the more likely they’ll notice when something unusual or suspicious is happening around your property
Feel free to share anything that you do around your area to deter crime.
