8-YR Old Cat Looking for New Home!! Can Anyone Help Reba?

[Anikaca77]

I was just on statecollege.com and saw this ad that this women posted wanting to find a home for her 8 yr old cat. I would love to help this women out but I can't take in anymore cats.

I'm going to e-mail her and tell her to move to my complex where cats are allowed but I have a feeling she might be moving out of town.

Can anyone else help her out? I copied the picture she attached so you can see what Reba looks like.

Thanks,
Melissa

Why, why, why, do people with pets move to places that don't allow pets?! This just burns me up!! It's your pet. You've had her for how long, and now you move and leave her behind?? Ugh. If I called her, I don't think I'd have much nice to say besides "Move to a place that accepts pets!!"

JennLibrarian,

I would never EVER think of movingt somewhere where my pets weren't allowed. Is there any way you or maybe JenLuck can help this poor cat? I'd help but I'm maxed out at 5 cats and a rat in a one room apartment. Reba will be in my thoughts and prayers. Stupid, irresponsible pet owners!!!

[Anikaca77]

I just e-mailed her and gave her a link to this website hoping she might be able to find someone to help her out. I'm at my max as well with 5 in a one bedroom apartment.

I'm sending my prays for Reba.

I also told her what apartment complex I live in hoping she will contact them and maybe find a place.

Did she say why she was moving? I mean, is it a divorce, a new relationship, or why would you move without your pet?? Many times when you rent from a person who owns a property compared to a complex, you don't have the huge fees for a pet, and they are more lenient. I know I avoided the complexes after I had cats because I was not going to pay $200. deposit for each pet and an extra $50 a pet a month. That's ridiculous. It never fails that they always keep your deposits anyway. I had one place that was like "The tub needed to be scrubbed better, deducted $50.00". Just petty and stupid excuses to keep the money. I'm glad I was able to buy my house 3yrs ago.

I don't know where or why she is moving. I'm only posting this in hopes that someone might be able to take Reba in. I would if I didn't live in a cramped apartment already. This is all I know from this women as of right now so I just thought I'd try to help her out.

Well I have been very lucky where I live now. They allow pets and they know I have more than I should in this apartment that I live at but I keep everything clean and my babies keep themseleves clean! So it does work out very well, where I live. I wish I was able to afford a house but my husband recently lost his job so we are unable to do that or I would love that.

I'd be happy to take her but don't have any money for transport.
I love older cats and she/he looks like a real gem of a cat.
I hope he/she finds a home nearby.
People are very cruel to not include their pet as a family unit when moving.

Did she say when she got this cat... it just struck me that she looks an awful lot like a grey tiger kitty we adopted out from our shelter, also name Reba. I thought that very odd for a grey tiger kitty.

I WISH THAT I COULD SAY YES BUT WE ARE A BIT CROWDED HERE.
ALL WE CAN OFFER IS PRAYERS.

[Anikaca77]

I have not heard from this women yet, I just hope she does not take it to the SPCA.

[Anikaca77]

She reposted her ad on statecollege.com but I have not heard back from her yet.

It's really sad that she's moving without her wonderful cat. I hope Reba will find a loving home!

[BC_MoM]

Poor kitty. I hope she finds a great home!

I'm thinkin', if Squeak can't go, I'm not going! My baby comes first! If I threatened to divorce my ex-husband over Ellie, I sure wouldn't move somewhere I couldn't take Squeak! Do people not look at them as members of their families? You wouldn't move without your two-legged children, so why would you leave your four-legged one? I just don't understand people!

[Anikaca77]

I know I couldn't move without my babies ever. I just hope she does not take the cat to the SPCA. I just can't believe she wouldn't e-mail me or anything either.
