My friend has 4 cats and desperately needs to rehome 2 of them by monday. She's moving house and is only allowed to take 2 of them with her. She's tried putting ads everywhere and has phoned the blue cross, RSPCA etc and so far no-one can help. I know it's a long shot but was wondering if anyone knows of anywhere else she could try in the Suffolk area? I would take them on but already have 4 of my own

Couldn't she just hide the other two when required?

Our landlord agreed to 2 cats when we moved in here. Unless he happens to see more than 2 together, or remembers them enough to tell the difference between tabby/white, tabby/tortie/white and tabby/tortie/bit less white, I don't think he's likely to realise we now have 4.

She's renting the house off her mum, she doesn't want to have to hide them if her mum pops round. I reckon she'll have to persuade her mum to let her take them all as there's literally nowhere round here to take them.

The blue cross said they've got a waiting list of 160 cats

Why won't her mum let her have them all, surely she can help out her own kith and kin!

Wow! If that was my mum I'd soon get her told

In my view it's not really a matter of how many cats ( within reason! ) but the individuals concerned. I've got four all since kittenhood-oldest now 18- and can honestly say that the only piece of very minimal damage was caused by just one cat who got accidentally locked into a room when I was away and clawed the carpet inside door to get out!

I would try this reasoning with her mother! If she has her own furniture then this minimises the risks even more!
