Hi, I’m Belle, a ten-year-old crossbreed hoping to find a new home. Being nervous, I didn’t cope well in kennels, so I’ve been living in foster care, which did wonders for my confidence and helped me feel safe to trust again.

I’m looking for someone who’ll be patient with me like my wonderful foster mum who says I’m “an absolute poppet, the perfect house guest, very sweet and loving. Belle makes me laugh every day, whether because of her beaming smile or the way she pops her head on my lap to let me know she’s available for a snuggle if I can spare a minute or two”.

Once you’ve taken time to bond with me you’ll see I’m the bestest friend you could ever have. I love spending time with people. It doesn’t matter what we’re doing, as long as we’re together, I’ll be happy. Want to sit in the garden? I’ll keep an eye on the bugs for you. Reading a book? I’ll prop the pages up with my nose. Having a cuppa with a biscuit? Don’t worry, I’ll hoover up the crumbs. And if you ever want an extra ten minutes in bed, I’ll happily curl up on you to give you an excuse to stay! All I want is someone who’ll love me back and won’t mind when I decorate the hallway with stuffing I’ve expertly picked out of toys!


I’m looking for a quiet home with adults or teenage children where I’m the only pet. I don’t mind seeing younger children for occasional visits, but I’d find it too noisy living with them all the time. Although I’m a senior, I love doing zoomies so need lots of space to get my laps in.

If you want a best friend with endless love to give, apply for me and Barry, my emotional support dinosaur, today! Call 0208 950 0177 (option 2) or email reception@nawt.org.uk
