Good home wanted for cats

9 years ago

I hate to post this.

My wife and I have rescued 5 cats from various sad circumstances. We brought two from Nepal with us.

Earlier this year we rescued a pedigree American Short Haired cat from a local family who had kept him locked in a tiny, windowless bathroom.

He is a truly LOVELY cat, loves to be around people and to be hugged. Unfortunately the other male cats we have won't accept him. We have tried for some time, but the situation hasn't improved and we have to keep him separated from the others. (All our cats are kept inside our house.) He has had rabies inoculation and all the rest.

His name is Dai-Chien and I guess he is about 10 months old. Several people have said they wanted him, but we have not been confident that they would give him a loving home. He deserves the best and I feel so sad to have to try to re-home him, but PLEASE only to a truly loving home.

We also have a ginger and white cat, male, who is about 2 years old. Again, we tried to introduce him to the other three at home, but they won't accept another male. He has been castrated and has such a lovely nature. One lady offered to take him but she has never had cats before, and tried to grab hold of him and "force him" and of course he was very nervous and reacted, and she immediately returned him. He is genuinely a lovely boy, but he needs a loving family who will be patient and caring, and let him acclimatise to a change of homes.

Neither cat has any road sense and we would prefer therefore that they are considered house-cats, in a loving home with room to move around. Prior experience with cats would be a great advantage - they are not toys to be grabbed hold of and then discarded when the novelty rubs off.

I know I am repeating myself, but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, only contact me if you think you can provide a lovely loving, caring, wonderful and permanent home.

We are in Taoyuan County- Pingjhen of Yangmei.
