TESS IS NOT SUITABLE FOR APARTMENT LIVING.

Hey, my name’s Tess and I am a fairly laid back senior girl who loves to nap during the day. I’m ideally looking for a low-set home, preferably no stairs, with an older family who will be home more often than not.

I absolutely LOVE human company and knowing that someone is home with me. My foster Mum says I would benefit from having a furry sibling who is a similar or smaller size, plus similar age to me. I’m not overly keen on dogs who are bigger than me, but I have been enjoying the company of my furry foster sister who is the same size and just 2 years younger than me.

I have arthritis in my back legs, which my foster Mum says I will be receiving Metacam for, but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying my late afternoon/early evening walks! I love going for walks, it’s so fun sniffing all those new smells.

I am a bit of a grandma and I do like to head to bed early at night. I do usually need to get up for the toilet at 5am as I am an early morning riser. I’m also partial to really comfy beds to curl up in at night.

I don’t live with any cats or chickens and I’m not overly sure about little people. Older people I adore and while they’re sitting watching TV, or studying like my foster Mum, I’ll come in to check on them and ask for a good pat and ear scratch before happily going back to snoozing or doing a perimeter check of the yard.

I also love food time, be that if you’re in the kitchen making food for yourself or when it’s my own dinnertime.
