Hello, my name is Winter 

I came into the sanctuary in November last year after I was rescued by a caring family who were concerned for my welfare. Sadly I was being attacked by entire males and was very scared of them so they took me into their home for safety. I was not microchipped or spayed. Unfortunately the family were not able to keep me so they reached out to the sanctuary for help.  

Once I settled in when I first arrived, I really came out of my shell and showed everyone what a sweet, affectionate girl I am, with a healthy dose of sass and cheekiness too! I definitely know what I want and like things my own way. I enjoy affection, mostly on my terms, but I absolutely love a good head rub. I’ll politely let you know when I’ve had enough mainly with a grumble or an occasional nip! 

I can be quite chatty, especially around mealtimes, and I’m not shy about asking for what I want. Yes, I can be a bit demanding! I’m also very nosey and love to know what’s going on around me, particularly if food is involved. My new humans will need to be mindful around food, as I can be a greedy girl. I use a slow-feeder bowl and puzzle feeders to help slow me down and keep me mentally stimulated. I would enjoy these in my new home too.  

I’m still a young girl and love to play, enjoying most toys and interactive games. 

I did find a home in early February, but sadly I have recently returned to the sanctuary. I wasn’t quite the right match for the other cat in the home, and we struggled to settle together despite my adopters doing their very best to help us make it work. Because of this, it was decided it would be in everyone’s best interest for me to come back to the sanctuary and try again to find the right home.

My recent adopters said that aside from the issues with the other cat, I settled in really well and was a lovely girl. I enjoyed snuggles in bed and had lots of fun playing with all the toys they kindly got for me.

Hopefully I can find my forever home soon, where I can settle in and stay for good.
