Title: Think we're having to re-home Woody
Post by: wharfevalley catsprotection on August 06, 2009, 20:05:00 PM: He just will not leave Katie alone and he keeps chasing her and making her life a bit rubbish. We know what we have to do, but it's so hard, I just want the best home for him...

If anyone wants a loony cat who just loves life then drop us an email!!!!!!!

He looks as if butter wouldn't melt but he's a cheeky so and so really! How do I let him go when I know it's or the best, but don't want to :(

It is hard when they are such a wonderful cat and you want to keep them, but you know you can't. Good luck in finding him a home

We were in exactly the same situation a few months ago and had to rehome Mojo after trying for 6 weeks to make it work and falling deeply in love with him! He made the other cat's lives miserable though and chased them out of their own homes at any opportunity. He is now in a home where he is pampered as an only cat and it makes me realise that this really is the best for him!
I hope you find him a lovely home xxx

However, although I have advertised them in several places I am finding absolutely zero luck in finding them a home - and have pretty much been told I am unlikely to at this time of year. :( :(

Good luck with rehoming him - he is gorgeous! :Luv:

It's actually wierd cos even though I feel bad for ourselves, I feel better now we've made the decision and now we can just concentrate on getting a great home for him - there are already a couple in the pipeline... will let you all know...

He's such a wonderful boy and been through so much (starved, kicked in the face, burned) and so the person who adopts him will be so very lucky. It felt the same when we re-homed another foster who had deformed back legs, but she found herself in a lovely indoor home with a kind child, other cats, a gentle dog and the run of the place so I know it can work out really well

Ahh maybe not so much of a failed fosterer yet!
