Cats need homes in Houston

[congo123]

We have 11 cats of varying ages, the oldest is 4 the youngest are 4 weeks old. We will be moving at the end of the summer and can keep and transport only 2 cats. i love them all and would like to find them good loving homes.

Should any of them stay together? Ages, names and descriptions might help people find homes for them! How sad you can only take two, but at least you have some time to find homes for the rest.

The cats are as follows:

Robyn (aka Big Momma) 4 yr old F orange and white striped
Tinker bell 2 yr old F orange and white striped
Ahmed 4 week old male, Naveed 4 week old male, Zayeed 4 week old F all orange and white
Shenequa - 4 months - tortoise shell F
Mfeddal - 4 months - cream colored F
Mohammad - 4 months - orange and white M
Sayeed - 1 year old M orange and white
Farooq - 1 year old M orange and white
Fakhir - 1 year old M cream colored

I would like the tiny ones to be adopted together when they reach 8 weeks
Shenequa and Mfeddal should stay together
Farooq and Fakhir should stay together

Their names can be changed - we named them after an extensive stay in Egypt.

Anyone interested please e-mail [email protected]

Another helpful piece of information would be to know if they have been tested for FIV/FeLV and if they have been spayed or neutered. Anyone adopting them would need to know what expenses they might be facing right away.

The 2 older females have been spayed. The males and the younger kittens have not been neutered. This is Big Momma, Mfeddal and Mohammed

Is there a reason why you aren't moving to a place where you can keep all of your pets?? What will happen to them if you cannot find them homes?? Do you know of any no-kill shelters in your area?

I just find this very disheartening, the fact that you took on so many cats and are now giving them up without having them spayed/neutered, and tested. When you take in cats, or if they breed uncontrolled, you need to be a responsible owner for them.

Seeing as they all have good Egyptian names, have you considered contacting any neighborhood mosques? We all know Mohammed had a legendary love for kitties, maybe some cat lovers at the mosque would help!

The tiny ones are too young to spayed and neutered, but the others should be, or most rescues will balk. Contact your local SPCA and ask about any low-cost spay/neuter programs, and at the same time you can ask about groups near you. The kittens will likely get homes faster than the older cats, but that's just life!

They are very beautiful cats and the young ones should adopt quite quickly if you can work with a rescue or sanctuary - have you contacted any? There must be some in your area since you live in a large city.

Cats as young as five months can become pregnant so with 3 females who are already four months old and 3 un-neutered males you could be trying to find homes for 3 young pregnant females just as you are trying to move.

Good luck in finding an organization who can help you and them by taking them in.
