'Can anyone help?

I had a call yesterday from a woman in Wednesbury who needs to rehome her son's cats due to his ill health. He's going into hospital on Wednesday. She's unable to take them, even temporarily, due to her own health problems. I gave her the numbers for 12 local rescues.

She just called me back and all the rescues are (not surprisingly) full. She says she has no choice but to put the cats to sleep if she can't find a home by tomorrow (Tuesday).

She doesn't have any photos of them but this is the description she gave me:
2 females (sisters)
5 years old
brown and black tabby
semi-long hair? (wasn't sure)
very friendly
good with kids (grandkids)
spayed
not vaccinated
prefer indoors but go outdoors occasionally

If anyone can help, please call me on 01983 200201. Many thanks! '
