Sinningia leucotricha impulse buy - oops

I bought one of these a couple of weeks ago (at least that is what I think it is). I got totally sidetracked while buying it as the woman who sold it to me also grows some other cool plants and I ended up in a discussion about Massonia (South Africa bulb). So I forgot to ask her about the care of the Sinningia leucotricha (in fact I forgot to ask her the species name and had to search online).
It's spring here right now and it has 3 stems with leaves and flowers and one small new stem just starting. I wouldn't normally think of repotting at this time, but it is so tight in the pot that the pot is distorted, and water doesn't drain through very well.
I don't know how much light and heat it wants, nor whether I should feed it. I've looked online but can't see much specific information.
I'm in Wellington, New Zealand. Temperate climate, no temperature extremes, lots of rain and an awful lot of strong wind. At the moment it is sitting in a hot sunny room with my succulent collection, my tomato seedlings, a couple of my more delicate carnivorous plants and various other bits and pieces that aren't suitable for outside.
Suggestions appreciated. If you can give me "it grows well in similar conditions to..." that should work as I grow a lot of different things. Also, I'd appreciate thoughts on whether I should repot it now.
Thanks
