eta: did the other 3 cats get homes/placements?

This cat has found a rescue space in Scotland, I know its miles away but so many rescues are full to bursting all over the UK with really long waiting lists of animals to come in so we have no choice but to get her to Scotland because the vets she is at will put her to sleep if we don't. We have a lovely lady who is going to drive her all the way from Leicestershire to the rescue space in Scotland. We have a lovely rescue that will Board all 5 cats over night on Saturday so the lady can rest over night and travel the rest of the route the following day.yes we have 4 more going up that we have managed to find transport for as well otherwise they will be put to sleep too :(from Norfolk.
The vets that have the old cat in Swindon have now given us until tomorrow to get this cat out so that doesn't give us a lot of time to find a fosterer. We need to find a fosterer on route to Leicestershire so ideally anyone in Swindon,Oxfordshire or Leicestershire if anyone can help please pm me or email me at kelly-joy@animallifelineuk.org, you will be home checked before she goes to your home as well.
