If you are moving or your cat has kittens you cannot keep, finding a good and loving home for them is essential. I have put an ad under giveaways in my local newspaper. I mentioned that my Facebook page had kittens that needed a good home.
When the party comes to look at my cat or kittens, I must find a new home; I ask them if they have ever had a cat. If they say yes, I know they know something about caring for a cat. I watch my cats react to them while they are holding him. If my cat or kitten growls or hisses at them, I do not feel comfortable giving them my cat. I let my cat judge who they want to live with. If your cat feels uncomfortable with the party that has come to look at them, you better feel uncomfortable with them. Cats are excellent judges of character.
For all of the cats or kittens I have had to find a new home for, I call the party that has adopted them and ask how they are getting along. One woman told me she liked her cat so much that she had adopted it from me that she also had to get another cat. I also ask the people that have adopted my cat to send pictures of my cat to me, and then I can see how well my cat is coming along in his new home.
When you have to find a new home for your cat or kitten, let the newly adopted pet parent know what your cat likes to eat and what their favorite brand of cat litter is. I have also sent some cat food and litter home with my new pet parent. Tell your new pet parent to call you with any questions or concerns that they may have about their new cat. I also give them a copy of my cat’s vet records.
I hope you can find a kind and loving home for your cat if you have to move or can no longer keep your beloved cat for some reason.
