Cat needs a home. Not mine! She has one.

[badseed1980]

A co-worker of mine sent around an e-mail for a friend of hers, who knows someone who's going into a nursing home and needs to find a new home for her cat. The cat is a nine-year-old spayed female with long grey hair. She's an indoor cat, described as playful and affectionate. A home with adults or older children is preferred. The cat has no experience with dogs. She's up to date on her medical stuff, and no chronic medical conditions were mentioned. If anyone's interested, let me know and I'll hook you up with my co-worker.

I know someone looking for a cat, but her house is not guaranteed to not let the animal out, and there are other cats, so I don't think it a good situation. :-< I'll post to my LJ and see if anyone I know is interest.


gah, I hate these situations! When I get old, I would be bereft without the lovely company of furry critters, especially cats. OTOH, what happens when I die or have to got into a home that won't allow them? This! So part of me plans not to have them when I get too old. So, so, so sad.

it sucks that people can't take their companions to nursing homes. i understand why, but sheesh.

if i didn't have Pharaoh i'd consider her. i like older cats, particularly ones with this sort of background. i'm sad that cats are lovely companions for so long, then are abandoned (not by choice, really) when their owner is too old to keep them, for whatever reason. i feel like such older cats have earned a safe cozy spot to be, and it bothers me that they aren't allowed to have it.

Another coworker of mine says that her tenant recently lost HER cat (I assume it passed away or ran away), and so she's bringing her the information to see if she's interested. Hopefully someone will take her!

I have a friend who is potentially interested. She has wanted a cat for a while, and hasn't gone to a shelter to get one because she feels one will "find her" when it's the right time. She doesn't have any preferences for age or sex, it's all good.

There are other cats in the house, who are indoor/outdoor critters. She lives in a separate "in law" apartment of the house. So. . . if the first option you have doesn't work out, you can put my friend velvetdragon64 Christine in touch with your co-worker.
