So, I'm obviously in the wrong place for this, but I'm getting a little desperate. My girlfriend and I are moving in with her folks for a while to save up money for a house. The only catch is, we've gotta get rid of our two cats. Well, it's getting down to the wire (we've gotta move out by the 1st), and everyone who's agreed to take them has bailed. Ideally, we'd like to take them again within a year or two, but if it comes down to the choice between getting them in a home that wants to keep them, and dumping them in a shelter, than I'd choose the former.

They're two male cats, one's a 6 year old orange tabby, one's a 3 year old grey Maine coon mix. Both are fixed, and both have had their shots within the last year. Neither one has any behaviour problems worse than rubbing up on your shit a lot, and neither has any litter box problems. They're both affectionate as fuck, and we fucking hate to lose them, but having them right now is not an option.

If anybody's at all interested in taking one or both of them, for a year or two or for good, or if you know somebody else who might be, let me know, seriously. They're awesome cats, and I wanna find good home for them.

If I wasn't allergic to them, I'd probably be interested. I love cats but they make me miserable with itchy eyes and sneezing.

do they kill things and leave em on your doorstep?

They might if they were "outside" cats, but we live in Woonsocket, so if we let them outside they'd probably get eaten by crackheads.

I have a cat that I would be willing to bet kills way more shit than anyone else.

It's kvlt.

hungtableed said:

Ha!! I will take that bet. I find dead animals that my cat kills at least 10 times a week and leaves them as a "present" on my doorstep. I woke up this morning and found a snake on my doorstep, ha!! Wonder what he will bring us for Xmas?

kill'em, skinn'em, cook'em good eatin' !

i'd love to help.. but my cat is pregnant and i gotta find homes for them as it is..

Damnit dude, my gf and I just adopted three cats last night. For real.

There should be an adoption shelter near you, just take them in if you can't find someone, they won't mind.

i have the same damn problem. i love cats but i am allergic to them.

No thanks. I dont like pets and plus Im allergic to cats...

For God's sake, someone take this kid's cats seriously.

They're no joke.

They'll fucking snuff you out like a light unless you give them their props. No dizzy.

Sorry man, 2 cats and 2 dogs already. Hope you can find a home for them.

PLAN B:

My husband won't let me have any more cats. Trust me, I've tried. If you DO have to take them to a shelter don't worry much, they have a lot that are really nice places for cats now. They have big rooms with cat jungle gyms and shit.

I currently live in that shithole also, and would gladly take on more cats if I didn't already have 3...and one was an "accident". You seriously don't want your cats ending up in any shelter around here my friend, all of the no-kill shelters are constantly so full there's a year-long waiting list or so, and the Woonsocket animal shelter is a fucking dump, not to mention they put healthy animals to sleep. I rescued a kitten (now about 13 pounds) from there about a year ago, he was stuffed into a cage with 5 other cats he wasn't related to, and it was disgusting...he wasn't even wormed, and had no shots.

ariavette said:

and thus the problem repeats itself...why the fuck isn't your cat fixed?

HailTheLeaf said:

Yeah, I've seen it, no thanks. If it comes down to it, I'll find a town shelter somewhere else.

HailTheLeaf said:

"rescued"
??
Sounds like you are killing it with food. 13 pounds? You know cats can get diabetes right?

CaptainCleanoff said:



Somebody call me?

hahahah yesssss

Yes, 13 pounds, and there's no fat on him. I've got another male and he's a bit over 13 pounds. Actually every male cat I've had has been around 13 pounds...now if they were 22 pounds there would be a problem...

Haha, Brimley Appears again!

these guys can take care of your problem

Yeti said:

you bastard, i was seriously thinking about this...unless someone replied yes in a post i haven't read yet

Still looking, folks.

The cats say they would prefer a house with cable.

HailTheLeaf said:

well the female is actually my mom's... i had to give her my male cat when i moved and he knocked her up.. so my cat's not technically the one pregnant.. but b/c my whore of cat did it. i have to find homes for em

#2.. b/c getting cats fixed is fucking expensive

yeah it fucking sucks cause i would love to have a cat. i cant even go to Andy's house because of it. i am dreading that party because i'm going to die from his cats.

there's a bunch of stuff the doctors can give you to hold off the side effects of allergies from cats.. even if temporary you'll make it through the night

or claritin.. something over the counter like that would work

ariavette said:

If you can't afford to care for animals properly, don't have them.

dertoxia said:

that show kicks ass

I've got 4 already, or I'd offer.

forget about the cats and get some awesome pizza

yeah, pizza. but not anchovy.

Still looking, folks - my parents've got them for a minute, but that won't last long.
