Spoiler(Not sure if this should be here or in what's your problem.)My best friend/sister is being forced to rehome almost all of her cats, and we still need to find homes for many of them. She lives in MN close to the IA border. We need to find homes for the following indoor cats within 12 days:Yurei - White medium/long hair cat. Heterochromatic eyes - one is blue the other is gold (I think?); like many white cats with blue eyes, he is DEAF, and should not go outside (though he does try, and he does have his claws). Also, his gold eye has optical herpes, which means he needs to be given special drops every now and then, or he could also go blind. Because of this, there's a good chance the Humane Society would just put him down, so we're hoping to find him a good home. He does tend to chew on weird things, including cords and the water lines to the toilet, but some dishsoap rubbed along said items usually deters most cats who do this. He is 7 years old, rescued from along Hwy 35 near Hope, he has been given the birthdate of 7-03. Very affectionate, will climb your shoulder and loves attention. (I would take him myself, but mom said no.)Leia - Tabby/Maine coon cross; medium/long hair. Looks like a Maine Coon. Also 7, definitive birthday 12/14. She is overweight and has trouble washing herself, but loves being brushed and will hold still wonderfully for it. Without brushing, her fur tends to snarl and get matts and her rear will need cleaning. She has a very quiet meow for her size, and is very affectionate. She is an indoor kitty, though has been known to go out for a few minutes. Loves cat nip toys, though we've yet to find her anything else she likes playing with to help the weight come off. (Also one I would adopt if mom would let me.)Little Girl - Tortois shell cat, age 5. Loves attention, will demand it on ocassion. Short hair.Chi - Orange/marmalade tabby with white tummy and markings. Male shorthair, age 3. Chi is rather needy and will demand attention.Gets along very well with Jiji.Salem - Black cat with white markings, though not a tuxedo. Male, shorthair, age 2. Can be shy at first and may hide until he is used to you. Birthday is 3-13.Jiji - Male shorthair Siamese snowshoe/lynxpoint markings. Rather rare coloring, as it took three years to find him. Not fond of being picked up, and like most siamese types he has slightly crossed eyes, but he loves attention. He is about 1 year old.These cats are not being given up willingly; suffice to say, her soon-to-be-EX sister-in-law is being vindictive and called the police to complain about how many cats she has despite them all being well cared for, so now her city's officials *have* to enforce the law with her, instead of turning a blind eye like before. We're not sure if the call was done in retaliation after she found out she could no longer lay claim to her husband's truck (which was put into their mother's name so he could still get to work), or becuase she thinks my sister brought fleas into her home (despite her allowing a random stray free access to her home), we just know it was done. We have just under two weeks to find them homes, and are hoping that whoever takes them in will be willing to share pictures on social media so my sister and I know her former cats are doing well. The last time she had to give up her cats was when her family moved to MN from TN, and she gave the cats to the Humane Society, who proceeded to tell her "they are no longer your cats and no longer your concern" and hang up on her when she called to find out how they were doing; she is still haunted by wondering how her cats fared without her. If you are able to take in one or more of these kitties, or know someone who can, please PM me as soon as you can. I have a few leads for the younger ones (who could go to the HS and find homes no trouble), but no commitments, and have obvious concerns on the first two, as older cats can be hard to place when they -don't- have health issues. All cats are spayed/nuetered, all are used to other cats and small dogs. Thank you!EDIT: We are currently working on seeing if she and her mom can receive a medical exemption for the legal amount they can have, as these cats are technically her anti-depressant/emotional support - she is clinically depressed, and any medication she has tried (and she's tried a lot of them) turns her into an unmotivated lump that can't even get out of bed. Her mother is Manic/depressive bi-polar and is having a hard time understanding what's even going on. Here's hoping!
If I were local, I would be sorely temped by the odd eyed boy, asking my vet about any concerns with his optical herpies. I am so so sorry for your friend if she was forced to make this choice with no other options. My girls are my babies.
