As you've found her on Twitter and FB why note just drop her a Follow and/or Friend request and start up a general dialogue in that way. You could gradually introduce more serious 'grown up' stuff about the perils of the internet and suchlike as your relationship blossoms.

Assuming that you/she are not outright forbidden to make contact, that is.

She might enjoy having an older female relative to chat with, especially since it sounds as if her Mother still views her as a little doll to dress up.

Maybe, but I also don't know her. It doesn't look like she's hugely active on those platforms either.

Rant incoming:

Bloody fireworks! Very noisy on Halloween (that's new around here), continuing with random loud bangs last night - why? it's not Halloween any more.

Now we'll have durrbrains setting them off randomly until Guy Fawkes night when another entire night of crap will ensue, more randoms until Diwali on the 14th... slight lull until about a week before Christmas then fireworks right through until mid January when most people have exhausted their stash. Then it hits the fan again for Chinese New Year in February.

I've already seen headlines of people injured by yobs using fireworks as weapons (against the Police) and several other folk victims of senseless attacks - one of them a 2 year old child in her own back garden when youths threw one over the fence.

In the UK you cannot carry a gun or a knife but you can buy an explosive device packed with gunpowder. A bomb, in effect, and walk around with it tucked under your arm in plain sight.
F'ing ridiculous.

Oof. Yeah I saw a firework the other night, and we've been hearing them often.

Hi Mom.

I know you're a little bit fixated on me but - and I hate to break this to you so publicly - I'm not actually your Mother.

With a bit of luck and some more searching, you might be able to track her down.

Yep, fireworks seem to go on for months now instead of one night a year.

Better still my neighbours have a dog that barks constantly (even when there are no fireworks)... and they decided it'd be a great idea to let him out into their garden for hours each evening, which is obviously a problem with pops and bangs going off every few seconds.
Who's the cat that won't cop out when there's danger all about?

Yeah, it does affect domesticated animals in different ways. When I had cats I used to keep them in at night as they were badly spooked by fireworks.

Of our 4 dogs now, one isn't at all bothered, one growls or barks at every loud bang, the other two are petrified and hide in their temporary 'caves' behind the sofa.

I feel sorry for the livestock and wild animals that have nowhere to hide. This time of year there's always stories in the news about horses, cows etc. that have gone crazy in panic and hurt themselves on fences, in barns and such.
