We are looking for a forever home (golden basket) for our gorgeous, fluffy cat, Sugar. She is 5 years old (almost 6) and she is the sweetest girl - affectionate, easy-going, intelligent and healthy.

Sugar's nickname is Pookie, we mostly call her that....also Squirrel and Rabbit (because of her fluffy rabbit feet).

We got her as a kitten, and she has grown up in Loosdrecht in the beautiful nature, climbing trees, sleeping in the sunshine or in a quiet shady spot, so we would love her to go to a home with a nice garden and surrounded by lots of nature.

Pookie loves to cuddle and be combed gently and she loves to be close to where you are - for example, if you work from home she loves to snooze on your lap or on the desk where you work, and if you are retired she will be a wonderful companion.

She is still playful, she loves to play hide and seek and pounce out of the bushes, and she loves to relax with us when we work in the garden, and she often walks along with us when we walk in the neighbourhood. (No harness, she has never worn one and we do not want her to be put in a harness).

She is an indoor/outdoor cat, she has been raised with a cat door (which unlocks via her microchip so no other cat can come in). She can only go to a home where she is free to go outside when she chooses. She cannot be kept only indoors or in an apartment.

We got Sugar when my daughter was 12 years old, so she can go to a home with a child/children 12 years or older.

She would also be a wonderful companion for a retired person/couple.

Pookie has never lived with a dog, so she cannot go to a home with a dog.

It would be difficult for her to adjust to another cat as she is already an adult (this is difficult for most adult cats), so it would be best if she goes to a home where she is the only pet.

We were home a lot, so we would prefer her to go to a home where there is often someone home. When we went on summer vacation, my parents stayed in the house with her. If we went away for 1 - 3 days, then our neighbour came to feed and check on her.

She eats well, a combination of wet food and dry food, and has never been fed human food so she does not wine or beg if you are cooking or eating.

She is micro-chipped, sterilised and vaccinated.

It is due to completely unforeseen circumstances that we need to re-home her, and it is very hard and sad. We really want her to go to an extremely loving, kind home with a lovely garden, lots of nature, and lots of company and attention.

We would prefer her to go to a village or rural area, not a city or area with busy/fast roads and lots of traffic.

If you are interested I would love to hear from you with a little bit about yourself and please include information about your garden and the surrounding environment. Also please clarify if you have a cat door installed.

Hopefully you live reasonably close to Loosdrecht so you can visit and meet her.

I understand basic Dutch but if you write in Dutch I will use google translate, and my daughter is fluent in Dutch and can help translate if necessary.

Many thanks 🙏 💕
