Description
Meet the delightful older lady, Tilly. A sweet girl with a (mostly) sensible personality.
Tilly is currently thriving in her foster home, after coming into our care following her owner passing away. She’s clearly been a very loved lady, maybe a little too much as we’ve had to put her on a diet to lose a few kg. She follows her lovely foster mum like a shadow and settles by her feet, even when accompanying her to work. Tilly is such a snuggle-bug, walks lovely, is dog friendly, has great recall, and adores a tennis ball and other toys. Tilly has mild cruciate disease/arthritis so this will need to be managed with medication, she’s had a full MOT at the vet and although lumpy and bumpy in places there’s nothing sinister present.
Tilly has shown very mild resource guarding of things she finds high value, be that a pair of gloves she’s cheekily stolen or her favourite toy for the moment. She needs owners who will understand this and manage it sensibly by trading with her or waiting for her to get bored.
Tilly wants an adult only home where she can be doted on and spoiled (with a few less treats than she’s used to), and someone to take her out for nice gentle walks and playtime.
