Shadow - 11 month old black cat

Shadow is going to have to go
I only ever intended to foster her, find her a good home and this is what we're going to have to do.
My 10 year old has eczema, not too badly but in the last week it's flared up worse than she's had it in years... I know I can't say for certain it's Shadow's doing but it could well be... and as we weren't going to be her 'forever' home - it's time to really ask - can anyone offer her a loving home?

She is adorable - following a period of being a bit nervy when I collected her, she now simply melts when you go to stroke her.. purring away contentedly. She's clean in the house - using a tray and I haven't had her outside since she's been with us.

Her previous owner had a small dog which wasn't a problem for her but she isn't so hot on our Golden - so probably a small dog in the house would be fine. She's a bit nervy of our 2 other cats but would possibly adjust in time.

I assured her previous owner I would look after her until I found her a loving home - this is what we've done so far and now she needs to go to a permanent home, which is what she deserves.





Please let me know if you are interested or know someone who is. I will only let her go to a home-checked or verified home.

I know Kelly (rescue) is looking for a place for her too, thanks Kelly. It's just with the eczema flare up - this has now become more urgent for me..

Re: Shadow - 11 month old black cat


Has anyone got any suggestions as to how I could help rehome this beautiful cat please?
I do not want to go down the gumtree route, I won't - she could end up in who knows what's hands... and that's the reason she's in my house - to avoid that!

But with my daughter's eczema, and Shadow's nervousness around my large dog.........

I really only want the best for this cat & she's not getting it at the moment...

Re: Shadow - 11 month old black cat

You are doing all you can really and as KellyJoy is on the case too - you can but hope - bad time of year though, and she's black (and I know that shouldn't make a difference but unfortunately it does)

thanks for replying spid....
I hadn't realised that black cats have a harder time
I'm happy to keep her as an indoor cat until she gets her perfect home but I just know she's not getting the best life she can - which is so frustrating.
Such a shame....

Re: Shadow - 11 month old black cat

Do you have a local Cats Protection League? I know it may not be what you intended to do but maybe handing her over to them would be best; they have a large footfall of people who will see her, will home check, have an adoption contract, etc etc.

Re: Shadow - 11 month old black cat

Poor little girl... where abouts are you based?

The only problem with the CP and other rescues (like already mentioned) is they have lots of black cats... for some reson they just aren't popular... I can't see why!!

Re: Shadow - 11 month old black cat

I don’t understand why black cats are so unpopular. It does not bother me one bit what colour a cat, dog or any or animal is.

Shadow is a stunner and reminds me of my cat Mika. I hope someone is able to give her a forever home soon.

Re: Shadow - 11 month old black cat

I love black cats and would have her like a shot, but if you say she doesn't like big dogs she probably wouldn't like mine. I am also quite a long way away.

She looks beautiful. Are you sure she wouldn't adapt to a big dog? Or two?
