Thread: 2 cats free

Good evening,
Im new here and I hope I will find here some friends and advices.

Well, I came here about month ago with my husband and little boy (5 yrs) and two kittens.

Last week we found out that our son is allergic and we cant keep this cats

One girl and one boy. A girl "Fluffy" is 10 months old, she is lovley girl, tabby (white). A boy "Chevy" is 6 months old, loves playing and cudling, black.

Both have microchip and been vaccine and have pet passport.

Because we cant keep then we just want find for them nice home.

Hello Gosia, welcome the the Absolute Spain Forum. Have you tried the local vets ? they may know someone or be willing to put an add in the waiting room. Is there a rescue centre near by, I know they are usually full to bursting with dogs not sure about cats though. Maybe your neighbours, or they know of someone ? I hope you find them a good home, good luck

Thank you for your answer.
I will try the local vet....it can be funny because we cant speak in spanish yet so.....but is worth to try.
Thanks again

I normally write out what I want to ask and put it in a translation site, I will send you the link in a private mail.

Unfortunately there are more cats and kittens looking for homes than people who want to adopt them. I have a friend who they call Joe the cat man. He takes in unwanted cats and abandoned kittens in this area and tries to rehome them.. With many Brits returning to the UK and dumping their pets, this has become an uphill struggle, and many have to be put down.

Sadly I am reading that more and more now.

Good morning,

Right, I would like keep them I love my cats but like I said I cant because my son is allergic on them and that is a problem

Hi Gosia

As the others have mentioned unfortunately there are already a huge number of cats looking for new homes due to people dumping them when they return to the UK or because for whatever reason they can no longer keep them. This is already putting a strain on the animal charities

Maybe as Val mentioned try the Vets, or also what about placing an advert is your local Free Ads newspaper?

Alternatively have you considered visiting the doctor to see whether your Sons allergy can be treated? A friend of mine had a cat allergy a few years back but got over it after having desensitising treatment. I gather from her there is also something called Immunotherapy which can be used to treat a cat allergy.

Hi Jazmines,

Thanks for your advice but it not gonna be easy because we are new here in Spain and we dont know where exaclly to go with our son but we will try way to sort this out.

Thanks again
