Title: 14 cats needing homes....nearly halfway so down to 7 or 8 needing homes
Post by: Gill (sneakiefeline) on February 04, 2012, 17:25:27 PM
I am posting this on behalf of Lau200 who due to personal problems now needs to rehome 14 of her 20 cats. She has  to move out of the home she had and 6 cats including Leonie who came from me, are going to be staying at her mothers until she finds new accomodation.

The 14 that need urgent homes are varying colours, ages and sexes and two are feral, one semi but they are like my Sasa and come in to eat but are terrified of people and cant be handled.

Cody is a part maine coone and she has a part ragdoll and think a part persian.

Lau is up in Widness but has no internet access at present so if you can help, please pm me and I can contact her, she wants all the cats to go into homes not into rescue or foster care.

I know its a lot of cats that need homes but would be so great if any Purrs people can help.

They are all neutered and jabbed and will be gorgeous.

Sorry to hear Lau finds herself in this situation, please send her my best wishes. I hope homes can be found for them all.

Sorry she is in this situation and hope the cats can go direct to homes but most rescues are full to bursting so maybe hedge her bets and contact rescues to especially for the feral ones

Also maybe alerting kelly Joy to this would help she is so good at finding homes

Post by: thekittensmittens on February 08, 2012, 17:28:42 PM
i have spoken to oh and he said we could have Pacey :wow:
however i read that hes not good with other cats? I think it may be good to see if someone comes forward that doesnt have cats if thats the case....but my offer is there if he desperately needs a home.
he is adorable looking :Luv2:

I would need him transporting though as dont have a car :-[
Title: Re: 14 cats needing homes
Post by: Gill (sneakiefeline) on February 08, 2012, 17:37:25 PM

Post by: thekittensmittens on February 08, 2012, 17:53:42 PM
hi
i have 3 cats
miyagi is a 1 year doll face persian male (gumtree baby so..maybe half :innocent:), not agressive.
georgia is also one, a black and white mad cat..she likes to play, not agressive but likes a bit of play fighting with miyagi.
Mo my red point persian PKD... shes a bit anti social to the other two and licks their food etc, hisses if they pass, guards the kitchen door etc but all talk  :innocent: she does follow the others on occasion so think its due to her being neglected on her own before so may not have had other cat companions?

im in birmingham.

I just wanted to thank everyone for their help and kind words. The first leaves tomorrow for a new home and I'm extremerly upset that it has come to this. Anyone who knows me +has met my cats knows I'm very attached to each of them but facing an uncertain future, I need to do what is best for cats, +find them loving homes. If I had any other choice I would take it but sadly this is the only option. I have no internet access so rely on friends to let me use theirs. I will be sad to see cady go tomorrow but I know she will be loved +cared for

Post by: thekittensmittens on February 25, 2012, 09:51:33 AM
I spoke to Lau today and there are still 8 cats needing rehoming.
I have suggested she ask CP to list her cats under direct rehome but her local branch doesnt do this so she may ask further afield.
At least that way she can meet & vet the people who wish to offer a home  :wow:

oh sheila hope he cracks :wow:

I know Kittys attack was traumatic for all of you but that is soo unlikely to ever happen again im sure. If polly is even half as loving as Pacey then she would make an amazing new family member for you...Pacey is so cuddly i think he actually would live on oh and me if he had his chance  :Luv2:

Title: Re: 14 cats needing homes
Post by: sheilarose on March 04, 2012, 15:32:55 PM
It's not looking too hopeful at the moment. We had a traumatic experience with another little black cat in January, and OH took the brunt of her attack. I really pushed my luck in getting her so it's going to be a hard battle to get him to agree to take Polly (although she is older and has a proven track record).

I'll stick with it though, tiff, but don't hold your breath. If it's going to happen it will be Mother's Day week-end cos I'm up that way on my own with the car. If I've worn him down by then, I could go and pick her up (note to self - put cat carrier in car  :shify: ) on the wway through.

Gill, let Lau know I'm doing my all  :sneaky: to get this sorted for Polly (you know I'm home checked by Celia Hammond, but I'm happy for anyone to come round and check me out again).  ;)

Ummmmmm when is BH?
Title: Re: 14 cats needing homes
Post by: sheilarose on March 04, 2012, 17:53:59 PM
Mother's Day is 18th March, don't think its a bank holiday, but it's my Granny's 100th Birthday on 19th (RIP Elsa) so the clan are gathering for a double celebration.

If I can talk OH round, Lau's is a short diversion for me on the way home that Monday. Like I say, don't bank on it, but if I can, I will.  I can't help thinking that Poor Kitty wasn't right for us, but has paved the way for Polly to come live with us instead. 

Lau, if you're reading this, I'm thinking about you and I'm so sorry you are in this situation.  If it were me, I'd ask my Purrs friends for help, too. I hope we can. :hug:.

All cats are neutered and vaccinated and some chipped. All are indoor cats unless it says different above.

Any help to give a home to any of the above would be so appreciated

Hello, if anyone is near to birmingham and can keep courtney +chelsey until I can collect them at the weekend please get in touch. Not a lot of people know I have serious health issues as I do not want it broadcast but the strong medication I am currently means I am not safe to drive and so I cannot make the 3/4hr roundtrip alone. The friends who I rely on are on opposites shifts to me at work this week so the earliest I can collect the girls is saturday. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Oh no, I thought these two were settled in their new home.  Has something gone wrong?

Sorry I can't be of any help.  :hug:

This is so sad but Tiff has told me that only Chelsey is moving and Courtney is staying with her.

You are so kind to offer to help and will let you all deal direct with Tiff.

I believe that Chelsey is shedding badly and this has caused a problem with Tiffs daughter, I dont know if she sheds all the time or whether its just because the weather has gone so warm and its seasonal.

I know excess shedding can be caused by stress, this may be a reaction to the move.

Could anyone take Chelsea for a week or two to give her a "halfway house" to de-stress after leaving Lau, then try her with Tiff again when she's calmer? Shame for her to go all that way back when Lau is overrun already.

Ah, only just realised that Lau lives in Cheshire :(  I stupidly  assumed Lau was in Birmingham :doh:

I can arrange to collect Chelsea from Tiffany and take to mine temporarily BUT I am worried this will stress her even further (particularly as I have a lot of cats of my own and Chelsea will sense this).  I've suggested to Tiff that she keeps Chelsea and her daughter separate for now.

I may just be better to wait until Lau can collect rather than moving Chelsea around?

I agree, the less that Chelsey is moved the best and I understand she is not a very happy cat......before moving to Tiff................and she is probably totally stressed out by the move.

I hope that you have spoken to Tiff about this

Can someone explain more clearly please what is meant by shedding?  :shy: 

Chelsea seems to be a short haired cat and (in my ignorance) I rather assumed shedding was more likely with a long haired cat. 

How do you know Tiff that the problem is related to Chelsea rather than Courtney?  Is your daughter allergic to cats?  If so why do you associate the allergy to only one of the cats?  Did you know that she was potentially allergic before you took on the responsibility for these cats? 

It is such a huge upheaval when a cat is relocated such a long distance....for everyone involved but esp the cat.  It is so very important that everything is thought through beforehand.

Forgive me if this sounds waggy fingerish.  It is not meant to.  This site is not only meant to assist with rehoming but also to point out the pitfalls of not thoroughly thinking everything through and that is the intention of my post :hug:  Please forgive me if I am way off beam  :-[

Both sorts of cat can moult and I now know that Chelsey was very stressed before the move, but Tiff and I didnt know that until now.

I suspect that the stress she was under plus the move have made everything worse and although she is Courtneys sister they are nothing a like at all.

Co has been with Tiff a while now and her daughter has not got a problem but the adding of Ch with all her problems has caused a problem and Ch is scared and stressed and dumping her fur and its not the right environment for her.

Its very hard but Tiff just pmed me and I agree with her assessment that Ch needs to be an only cat in a nice quiet home with no children. Ch is not even getting on with her sister.

Tiff and I are very sad cos Tiff says Ch is a lovely cat but this move just wasnt right for her and I hope that she will be collected at the weekend and then someone will give her a lovely home.

Sadly Rosella there are many things we do not know about these cats.

Shedding is moulting  :) and all cats do that  :) but its not the fur that causes allergies, its the dander  - i.e. skin particles. In Tiff's case though, I understand her daughter has asthma - so it may well be excess fur around the place making that condition worse. Courtney probably isnt moulting as much as Chelsea - but I do wonder if it may be a problem somewhere down the line when Courtney does moult.

Post by: Gill (sneakiefeline) on March 27, 2012, 22:10:49 PM
I dont think that it will be a problem, cos I think the reason that Ch is moulting so badly is stress and this wouldnt normally happen.

The two cats have different sort of fur also and I would class Co as a normal short haired cat but also she can be groomed but Ch because of being so stressed cant be.

Tiffs daughter has lived with a cat before with no problem.

Can I ask who has said chelsey was not a happy cat before the move? I know that chelsey ran down the stairs when sheila was there due to being on her own upstairs but other than that she was her usual chatty self. Unfortunately I do not have as much access to the forums as I would like and there seems to be a lot of misunderstanding going on here. All I want is my cats happiness

Post by: CarolM (Wendolene) on March 27, 2012, 23:46:44 PM
Although all cats moult they do vary enormously in their potential to cause allergic reactions.  My SIL who is asthmatic just had to walk into a room that my cat Rosie (a tortie and white) had been in and she would have difficulty breathing and her eyelids would swell but none of my other cats have ever had any effect at all on her.  In fact Korky used to stay with her and my brother when we went away and was even allowed to sleep on their bed.  One of the vets at my practice is also allergic to some cats and says he can't predict by looking which they will be.

When something unforseen like this happens it does highlight the problems associated with transporting cats long distances for rehoming.

I cant see that anybody says that Chelsey was not happy before the move, I said she is not a happy cat and thats in her current situation.

Gosh I can hardly type , so tired and Sasa has escaped and am hoping she is going to want to come in , anytime now please Sasa.

Can she be put in a room on her own to acclimatise and have the usual Feliway, RR in her water and perhaps some Zylkene to ease her stress

I know moving cats can be stressful having had an outbreak of Stress catflu when we moved 37 and we used all of the above methods and after a while it was ok

My shorthaired mob cast and are brushed and combed on a regular basis because they are sometimes worse than the longhaireds, same with the dogs

Moving her again is going to add to the stress so perhaps consulting a vet would help the situation and ease the stress this is causing all round for both humans and cats :hug:

Sorry, Lau, it was me.  :-[

I mentioned that Chelsea was probably pining for Courtney when you told me she cries a lot and that she was Courtney's sister, and she was crying at the top of the stairs that day.

Please don't take offence, these things sometimes translate badly in writing, my fault and I'm sorry.

In attempting to get things moving I appear to have made things worse, which is a shame as Polly has settled in so well here, we've even got to the bottom of her microchip mystery which I'll PM you about.

I'd hate this to spoil things for anyone. Do forgive me.

Chelsey is back safely with us and has settled back in as if she had never left. she was put in a cat free room but as soon as i shut the door she was shouting and scratching to get out and Jamie was on the other side doing the same. they have been inseperable since and we would like Chelsey and Jamie to go to a new home together.

Jesse has been offered a home with a close friend of mine, along with his brother Jonny.

The long 3hr+ journey yesterday was difficult and i have been suffering since so as result i will be unable to transport any cats anywhere atleast for the immediate future until i am well, so a cat transport train will be required if potential owners cannot collect. i am relying on family and friends to care for my cats whilst i am ill so if anyone can think of anything to help me rehome a few more i would appreciate it.

Gill, i believe an updated photo of Poppy was sent to you sometime last week i believe.

he was staying with leonie but didnt want to split the brothers up, as i want jamie and chelsey to stay together, it only seems fair that jesse and jonny stay together. i am concerned that sending some of these cats alone to new homes would cause them not to settle properly. as i have seen no evidence of the hissing behaviour or anything, chelsey is being her usually chatty self, happy for cuddles from humans and snuggles from other cats

Hi

 :welcome: to Purrs  ;D

What area do you live in and what kind of property? Do you have a safe garden?

I dont know which of the cats would be good with children and a home check would be necessary.

A couple of the cats have to go in pairs but havent updated to say which.........its Chelsea and Jonny, the later not on the list but has to be added. There is also another couple I think.

Chelsea was rehomed ubt is moulting very much and the ladys child suffered from asthma so she had to go back but she also was not happy with children......in fact she was not happy at all.

Most of the cats are under 3 yrs but I also need to know the age of your children and whether they are used to cats and whether they suffer from asthma.

Have you ever had cats before?

Sure there are loads of other things I will need to know before contacting the owner .

I have to go out now but will be back later

Gill

Hi Gill
I live in the midlands area its called Arley and I live in a 3 bedroom terraced house with patio bit and a good sized garden.
I have a 10 month old daughter who loves cats as my mum has 1 and my brother has 1 and she is around them all the time.
I did have a kitten called clover but due to her being very timid my mum has had her at her house and she is very settled now.
My daughter doesnt suffer from any type of breathing difficulties as my mums cat chalkie malts alot and Imogen ( my daughter) is always playing with her.
I owned clover for just over 2 years now but with her not settling with imogen its nt fair on clover to upset her so now mum has her and looks after her clover is also abit disabled in her back legs.

thanks
lauren :)

As you are not able to PM yet Lauren (think maybe it's being a newbie and you'll be able to PM after a certain number of posts), it might be best to communicate via email?

Would that be better Gill?  If anyone wants to use my email address to communicate, feel free but I will not be interfering, will just send on any messages

Cats still needing homes are poppy (tortie female), candie (tortie female), clive (ginger male), clint (ginger male), and chelsey/jamie (tabby +white female/black male to go as a pair). This can be moved out of urgent as have back up from local rescue + any remaining cats will be going into their care within the next few weeks. Due to my health issues, family +friends care for the cats most of the time. However due to the situation with chelsey I believe it will be difficult to convince someone to drive me any great distance to deliver a cat, and I cannot guarantee I would be able to collect the cat should he or she fail to settle in.
