so I think this one would be a rescue in itself!!!!

I really wish I could have her. . .now that I have a full time job I could afford to get her in at the vets and get everything done that she needs
i know kittenswithmittens may have her but she lives in edinbugher if theres a way to get her there why not pm her.

But they have to buy one sooner or later anyway so it shouldn't be a problem!

She is so beautiful. I'd really love her if i wasn't so far away I'm looking for an older cat anyway as company for my 6 month old cheeky girly. And she sounds perfect considering she is good with kids too! Perfect. Only thing i do wonder is whether she is litter trained? ...Not that there has to be a reason for her to be so desperate to re-home her - there probably isn't!!... but IF there is then unless she gives every bit of information, even if it may be considered a 'fault' then its just risking her ending up in the same hands, with someone who's going to re-home again or where she might end up in a rescue anyway!
that's actually the reason why I posted it on here because I had thought that since she's giving her away to anyone she could end up living with someone exactly the same! whereas all the people on here tend to actually have a clue about looking after animals and she would have been fine

I will suggest just putting her in a rescue anyway I think. . .just because if she goes in a rescue. . .yeah she might end up there for a while but she'll get the vaccs she needs. . .and the houses will be checked before they let anyone have her instead of just giving her to anyone

that's quite far and might be a bit too stressful for the furbaby to go

I'm trying to get my OH to talk to his parents about having her hahaha

It would be a big shame but probably for the best - even the title alone "free to a good home" holds too many risks! She is a beauty and I'm sure someone will find her and give her the home she deserves if it does come to that ... gutted I'm so far away!

I think the term free to a good home is thrown about too much. . .I used it because that's what she put on her fb post but like it's not like she is actually finding out whether it's a "good home" or not. . .it's just a term nowadays
