In my opinion an adult female we assume ibera of that age will need a very large table.
or you will need ear muffs ! I suppose you can keep her in overnight on colder days but that old and probable size far better off out in the garden too. Be interested to hear how you get on - how exciting for you. if in doubt with weeds get some florette crispy , prices vary but on good days at co-op , sainsburys it is £1, then grow your own as it'll save money long run also.

She will eat !! masses ! good luck and keep us posted, we love new TK's CB
