Maybe someone from here could go pick her up and take to a rescue? She is free. Where is Farnborough?

Amazing that they use the word 'Sold' when they are advertising the poor little babe for nothing!  Surely it would have been more accurate if they had explained that a new home had been found for her. Makes you wonder.

Animals are much too easy to acquire. It really is time all small animals were licenced.

Fingers crossed that she will be going to someone who was as horrified as we were at seeing how callously she was going to be evicted once her kittens were independant.

You may think that what you do is insignificant, but it's important that you do it.  (Gandhi)

Fingers crossed that the cat does get a good loving home - they are obviously willing to let her go unneutered, but at least it sounds like they are keeping the kittens until they are 8 weeks, going off those dates.
I agree with Ela and Jack - unless a rescue person posts with kitten pics, i can't congratulate, we see way too many in a rescue situation to be happy at more being born.
Please spay your cat

 We have a female black and white cat, now needing a new, loving home.

I think the advert says it all really. If the poor cat already had a loving home then they would have seen to it being spayed. It doesn't look that young so my guess is it was a house cat that got out one time when it came into season  :innocent: :evillaugh: ;)

Still I guess we never know the individual circumstances do we.. Its just important that  the cat gets a new  loving home. Hope someone on here can help.

Unfortunately these types of ads are in the papers every week, and also rescues receive  hundreds if not more phone calls a day for cats that are just now know wanted, and it is for this reason when people post to say my cat has just had kittens I cannot bring myself to say congratulations (although sometimes I appreciate it may have been a stray taken in already pregnant)

Unfortunately, I know what you mean, Ela. A new life should be a joy, but because of people not doing what's best for their animals, there's an awful lot of cats already needing homes. Any more is just adding to the escalating problem. (Obviously, we don't want species to die out! Just have enough people to care for the ones already about!)

I have been thinking about it myself, as we are looking for a 4th and final cat (even though Farnborough is 50 miles away) I have asked Louise if she is still available. I will let you know when she replies.
