How sad you didn't think about thier destiny before your upcoming move .

Society today sure has a throw away mindset even when it comes to living breathing creatures once considered family " Pets"

I certainly hope those 2 beautiful cats find a more compassionate owner before you dump them in a shelter.

"I am moving soon" is not thinking in advance?

Granted 3-4 weeks isn't a HUGE amount of time, but emergencies do happen...

Why the yelling?

Please, the OP appears to be doing a good job at trying to find a home for the kitties, we are full and cannot take any more, I am hoping they find a good home.

Oh please. Most people on this forum don't care where homeless PEOPLE live, as long as it's not in their own neighborhood. What makes you think they would care about where CATS live?

They are beautiful cats, and I'm sure you have your reasons.

I'd like to suggest that if you do not find a proper home for them (please try to keep them in TV where most people are trustworthy pet owners) you contact YOUR Humane Society of Sumter County. They have two cottages dedicated to cats and kittens, and their adoption rate is quite good. I volunteer at the shelter walking dogs, but I know from being there and on their Facebook volunteers page that the cats are given lots of attention and excellent care.

I don't know their capacity right now, but you can get on their web site YOUR Humane Society SPCA – Rescue Your Rescue (https://hsspca.org/) or call and talk to one of their staff at 352.793.9117.

It is a no kill shelter. Good luck with your beautiful kitties. I wish I could take them, but I'd be one pet over the limit, and it looks like they would do best staying together.

What a cruel and rather spiteful reply to the OP. You have no idea why she has to leave and probably return to family in Wisconsin. "walk a mile in my shoes" may apply here.

Best of luck. The kitties look happy and well-cared-for. I'd consider it but I'm sure our princess would not be too happy about it.

A couple of suggestions:

1) giving them away individually might be a better option than insisting on giving them both to the same person. Doing it that way would probably be harder on the the giver than on the cats. Cats live in the moment for the most part and adapt pretty quickly to new surroundings.

2) Wisconsin. Family at the destination? Maybe they'd take in your kitties. Most airlines allow a certain number of pets to be flown. It's a bit of a hassle (they have to have proof of immunizations, physical in the past 60 days, things like that) that varies with the airline but it can be done. I flew with our cat from Minnesota a couple of years back. It went fairly well thanks to a really good tranquilizer obtained from the vet, though she did wake up about 20 minutes from Orlando and entertained the little girl next to me by lying on her back in the carrier and more or less begging to get out. Also, though I know it can be done, I'd NEVER fly with a pet that rides in the luggage department. Lots of horror stories about what can happen.

Again, good luck.

Its a long shot I know, but you could ask the radio station in TV to mention that you have to move and leave trwo beautiful catrs that need a new home.

What about your vet. Maybe they would put up a notice with photos of the cats.

Here is another long shot .... ask the Daily Sun to do a piece on your move and having to leave your animals. You just never know.

Whatever your circumstances, I wish you good luck with your move.

This and do it now. Screening for a new family home takes time and the Humane Society excels in that area. I’m sure a year ago you didn’t know what would happen now and I suggest you dismiss the chiding by some who have posted.

Call Lori at Kae-Raes and tell her about the cats. Last Fri , she said she was interested in getting another cat. She has 1 and its companion passed away of old age. She loves animals and if she's willing your cats would have a great home. good luck

...that between this forum and NextDoor, both these fur babies will have a great home by the end of the weekend. I would not consider splitting them up since they get along so well together. That tends to change behavior forever. It is rare that non-siblings get along like that.

Good luck!

Thank you for saying what I was thinking. Situations arise every day that change our personal mission. Giving up beloved pets to a new home would be very painful for most people.

[PugMom]

yesterday i shared this story with a group of friends, telling them where to look to find you. 1 person in particular who works @ Reville, may send you a msg re: your babies. hope it works for all those involved.
next thing would be to phone a local veterinarian & share your story. (this was routine 'up north' when a client lost a beloved companion due to whatever). some good pet candidates would be brought in as homeless, & we'd screen them for temperament, compatibility with other pets, like dogs, etc. we'd then match up the pet with the grieving client & had major success. sharing your story with veterinarians works the best-you know whoever is considering adoption is most-likely a devoted pet owner. call SumterAnimalHospital, on 301, & WildwoodAnimal Clinic also on 301. ask them if you can post pix of the kitties on the customer bulletin board, & see how it goes.

[OhioBuckeye]

Yea, our pets really become part of the family & it’s hard to give them up. Hope you find a good home for them. It’s a very tough decision you have to make, especially when you see them for the last time. Good luck in your new home!

Are they both spayed and/or neutered?

[dkaufnelson]

contact Cat Crazy Villagers as they may be able to help https://www.catcrazyvillagers.com , but definitely post on NextDoor too.
/ if no luck there contact Your Humane Society Lake Panasofkee YOUR Humane Society SPCA – Rescue Your Rescue (https://hsspca.org/)
Good Luck and do try to place them together as cats have a tough time with change and having their partner there will definitely help!

I was thinking the exact same thing. The OP is obviously very caring and concerned about having their cats going to a good home, then is attacked for it? Just goes to show - "No good deed goes unpunished."
