Hi,
Unfortunately I am having to find a new home for my two female cats.
The cats were my ex girlfriends, when we split up I stayed in the house and so she left the cats with me and I have looked after them for the last few years. However my new girlfiend is moving in and unfortunately she is massively allergic to cats and so sadly we are having to try and find a new home for them.
This isnt something we want to do but we have no choice as as much as she has tried to live with them she just cant due to her allergies and it is affecting the cats quality of life as they are now having to be shut out of rooms all the time (ie the lounge and bedroom).
I have already tried all my friends, family and friends of friends but have had no joy and I have contacted the local cats protection league but they have a waiting time of 3 months before they can even consider rehoming them.
The cats are both female and are called Tallulah & Tilly (for the record I didnt name them!!!).
Tallualh is approximately 5 and Tilly 4.
Talullah is grey and Tilly is white with orange and brown patches, they are both pretty much short haired although Tallulahs hair is abit longer then tillys.
Tilly is fully grown but is very small for an adult cat, and Talullah isnt particularly big either.
They are both very friendly and love being stroked and sitting on peoples knees.
As far as I know they were just bought privately.
They currently live with me in Chesterfield, Derbyshire.
Ideally I would like to rehome them together but aswell as playing with each other they are both quite independant and for the sake of finding them both a good home I would be willing to split them up.
We used to have a dog, so they both lived with and got on with him, they are also used to children and are extremely friendly.
They are both house trained and tend to spend most of the day outside then come in at night.
Neither have ever had any health problems and as far as I am aware are up to date on their vacinnations.
Both are neutered and micro chipped.
If anyone can help or can recommend what to do that would be greatly appreciated. If there is anything I have missed off please let me know.
Cheers

there is a product called petalcleanse that helps with allergies - have you tried that??
-
Welcome to Purrs. :) If you can get pictures of Tallulah and Tilly people always appreciate them.
Definitely try the allergy treatments first though.....my cousin suffers from allergies and asthma but she uses medication and happily lives with two cats. ;)

Thanks for the replies.
We have tried all types of allergy tablets, she currently takes 2 nasal sprays, 2 inhalers and 3 different types of allergy tablets every day, aswell as the house getting thoroughly hoovered with a special hair and dust removal hoover but nothing seems to work so we have made the decision to find them a new home.
I did try and attach 2 photos to my original post, and I can see them when I look at it, do they not show up fro everyone else?

I can see the pics, they look lovely - have you looked on catchat, they have lists of rescues you might be able to find someone in your area who can help, trouble is its kitten time

I see them now! :) Beautiful cats and I'm really sorry that you have to part with them. Will ask around for you.
Forgot to ask - is your ex not interested in taking them back if the situation has changed?
