Loving home needed for beautiful little Tinkerbell....

Sharon from Gulf Harbour

Hello neighbours,

I am moving to Australia and need to find a very special new mummy/family for my beautiful little Tinkerbell. This is a heartbreaking decision for me, as I was hoping to take her with me, however, given her temperament, I believe it would be best for her to remain here in NZ.

Tinkerbell is still a cute little fluffy at approx. 3.5yrs. She appeared out of the bush whilst I was living on a farm, in Warkworth in the middle of nowhere, and must have only been around 6-7wks old. Tinkerbell is still very cute and small but has a big personality, though is very shy. Once she trusts she is very affectionate and loves to play, especially hide and seek, so would love being around someone with a playful nature. She is used to being part of a large cat family as she was number 7 when she found me.

Tinkerbell does need company of at least one other cat as she loves playing, so preferably one who is energetic/fun to hang out with. I am not sure how she would interact with dogs or young children but she is sensitive to noise so a quieter household may be more suitable. She is quite the explorer and spends a lot of time in the bush (her safe place), up trees and under buildings, so finding a home with access to bush/trees is a must for her. She likes to have her escape routes and hiding places for observing.



I have no idea where she came from but she has been a real gift. I would love to rehome Tinkerbell with Possum if possible (see separate post), but it is not absolutely necessary. If you or someone you know may be interested in adopting Tinkerbell I would love to hear from you.
Thank you for reading.
