All About Me and My Unique Personality: This loveable, bonded duo are ready for their next big adventure!
Tigg and Diesel's lives were unfortunately turned upside down a few months ago but this hasn't stopped them from winning the hearts of everyone they meet. They are incredible companions, not only to each other but to their humans.
Tigg and Diesel enjoy wandering around the house, laying in the sun watching the birds out the door, Diesel loves to sit on the windowsill and admire his kingdom and Tigg likes to play flop and roll around on the floor with her favorite toy, a feather. Diesel does like to join in on the feather fun every now and then.
Tigg is quirky with her toys and will often carry around her little stuffed mouse and turtle around so she can play with them in various parts of the house.
Both Tigg and Diesel have had a major dental work completed by our veterinary partner due to the goodwill of some amazingly caring donors. Diesel had a few teeth removed and a clean however, Tigg had to have ALL her teeth removed due to a condition called stomatitis. This means that Tigg needs a good serving of soft food morning and night - which she relishes.
Tigg and Diesel are all around beautiful souls.
My Ideal Home: Tigg and Diesel are people pleasers and love nothing more than being included on the happenings inside the house. So being able to go about their business inside the house is extremely important!
They are suitable for full-time workers as they are happy to potter around throughout the day, keeping each other entertained. Tigg will take her toys from room to room to play.
These suit would suit a mature quiet home environment where their retirement years can be filled with soft voices and loving chin scratches.
While they may be suitable for home with confident, calm children, as seniors, they would prefer the quiet life with their special mature-aged humans.
What is Known About My Background: Poor Tigg and Diesel have had a rough last 12 months. They both lost their human father due to illness just before their human mum had to leave the only home they've ever known due to foreclosure. Mum looked everywhere for somewhere for them all to go however with the current rental climate, their mother was unsuccessful. Their mother reached out to Hunter Animal Rescue who in turn were able to offer assistance to help rehome them.
How Do I Interact with Kids, Dogs, Cats and Other Pets: • Dogs - Neither Tigg or Diesel are fans of big, boisterous dogs - Diesel has alot more confidence when it comes to dogs but Tigg would just rather... not. In saying that they have both been fine with my elderly dog that pays no attention to them so they would co exist if the dog leaves them alone and doesn't hasstle them.
• Cats - Diesel doesnt mind other cats, Tigg is not a big fan especially females. In their previous home, Diesel was daddy to all the foster kittens. They are not okay with my male resident cats there is the odd hiss but noting worring as yet they do like their space and will take them selves off the bed.
• Children - So long as children are not chasing them around
• Pocket pets (birds, rabbits etc) - Not suited
