Hi, can anyone help...?
Our much loved cat called Arnold is in desperate need of a new home. Arnold is a 4yr old fluffy ginger boy who is one of the friendliest cats I have ever met. Unfortunately he has become increasingly more stressed and anxious since the birth of our daughter who is now 2 1/2 yrs old. Since her birth he has pretty much hidden under the bed or behind the sofa all day every day until last thing at night when our daughter is tucked up in bed. He then comes out for fuss etc and becomes the old Arnold again. We are expecting our 2nd child in February and worry as this will distress him further and worry as he won't even get his time with us last thing at night as he didn't leave the sofa much at all when our girl was a baby. Since becoming pregnant I have become increasingly allergic to him aswell and my asthma is becoming much worse and this along with my other health problems is just getting too much. We have done so much in an attempt to make him happier but ultimately it boils down to the fact that he is just too worried living in a house with young children. We have looked into rescue centres etc but can't bring ourselves to do this as he would be really anxious in a pen or large foster home and would still not be able to show his fussy side but obviously if things get worse this is an option we will have to reconsider. I was just hoping there might be someone out there that would like to offer him a home? He is a house cat but has also had experience of going out so would suit either really. He is fine with other cats but would probably be scared around dogs unless a very placid and friendly one! The main thing is children, he needs a home without children or a home with grown up/older children. I will try and put a picture on but he is extremely camera shy. I will try on my mobile phone camera if all else fails and update. My number is 07834729502.
Thank you for your time reading this

Cats Protection have an adoption centre in your area, and I am sure they would place your boy on a waiting list to come into their care.

If you tell them his history, better still if you write it all down, then they will do their best to rehome him in a suitable home without children.

When we take cats into our care, we always try to match the cat with the right owner, and vice versa, as the last thing we want is for someone to bring a cat back and upset it once again..
