🌟🌼 MEET LIDLEY 🌼🌟

“I like big bellies and I cannot lie,
You other felines can't deny,
That when a kitty walks in with an itty-bitty waist,
And a belly in your face, you get -"

Oh, hey guys!! Thanks for dropping by! Before you carry on scrolling why don't you take a seat, get comfortable and enjoy the rest of this beautiful version of "Baby Got Belly' that Sir Mix-A-Lot dedicated to me?
...No? Well at least let me tell you a little bit about myself!

Nature
I'm a shy little lady but I have the kindest and most gentle soul you could ever hope to meet. I have only been with my foster family a short time but what my pawrents have learnt about me so far is that I'm a beautifully natured super chonk of a girl, jam-packed full of love from my head down to my little bean toes.
I've not had the most stable life these past few years which isn't ideal for any kitty, least of all a senior like myself.

My Foster Mum says that I am the best little girl, with beautiful manners and no bad habits, and would keep me in a heartbeat if she wasn't already run ragged with fosters! She thinks the reason I could be such a nervous nelly is due to the fact I have never settled into a home that I could truly call my own. Even though I am shy, I more than make up for it with my paw-some personality. I absolutely adore people and will slowly start to come out of my shell with good company and plenty of love.

Companions (Children, Cats & Dogs)
Whilst I am a HUGE fan of hoomans I am a little bit cautious of my four-legged friends. Unfortunately, due to having no information on my past, my foster pawrents say I am somewhat of a question mark. It is not known if I have ever lived with animals or how well I would do in their presence. I have met a few of the resident kitties and I'm chilled out until they get too close and then I let out a little warning hiss to let them know I need my space. She would ideally like to see me go to a pet-free home but, if there happened to be an additional fur baby, she is certain we would learn to get along just fine so long as they are kind to me.

It is also not known if I have ever lived with children before but my Foster Mum would prefer if I found a family with older kids who will be gentle with me and not too loud. I'm an older girl now and I like my peace and quiet.

Likes / Dislikes
My Foster Mum says the reason I come in such a hefty package is so that it can hold my big, beautiful heart. I try to keep in shape (What? Round is a shape!) by eating all day. It takes a lot of discipline to look this good but someone has to do it! My favourite thing in the entire world, aside from food, is love! When it comes to love I go from zero to one hundred in five seconds flat. One minute I'm hiding, the next minute I'm your best friend! I tell you, there's no middle ground with me. Speaking of no middle ground, did I mention that I like food? And when I say like, I mean loooove?! The vet said I could stand to lose a bit of weight. I know, right? How dare he talk to a lady in that way. My Foster Dad says I'm just big boned - and who doesn't love a chonky donk?

Other things on my 'favourites' list include chin and ear scratches, loving pats and boofing my body up against yours to really let you know how much I love you. I'm also a huge fan of chicken and cat milk. Ooh, ooh, and my Foster Mum just introduced me to these Dine creamy treats and, oh my sweet potatoes, are they dreamy.

The only things that I'm not so sure of are new places and new people but I get over it pretty quickly once I'm shown a bit of love and some TLC and food. Food helps too.​

My PURR-fect home would ideally be with someone older, perhaps a retired person or couple, who has plenty of time to shower me with the love and affection I truly deserve. I would prefer a quiet and relaxing environment so that I have a chance to decompress, build up my confidence and finally feel comfortable enough to settle into my new life. I would love a family who are home more often than not and who will enjoy spending their free time with me. Ideally there would be no other animals in the home but if there is, and they are respectful of my boundaries, I am sure we would get along just fine.

I may be a golden girl, but age is just a number and I have plenty of years ahead of me. I'm really hoping I can spend the rest of them surrounded by love, comfort and warmth. My Foster Mum says I deserve nothing less.
