I guess that you have had hundreds of people on here wanting to find new homes for unwanted pets. Ours are not un-wanted; we do however need to find them a home urgently.
We have 2 large tabby and white male, neutered brothers who love each other very much. They are called Charlie and Motley and we have had them from 8 weeks old. They are now 7 years old. They love to sit on your knee and Motley just loves to give you kisses.
We are moving to NZ in about 3 to 4 weeks time. That is the problem; you see Charlie is not good at travelling. He gets himself all stressed out. He pants and gets sweaty pads. We love him so much that I could not make him travel all the way down to London, then 2 days flying. You are not able to sedate an animal for flying. Motley would be fine but I could not part them as they spend a great deal of time together both inside and outside. They even sleep together. I would prefer it if you were not next to a busy road. They love to sit in the garden with you, so a garden would be great.
If you would like to give our boys a home for life and would not mind the odd email from NZ to see how they are doing, then we would love to hear from you. I am not the type of person to say yes and then give them to someone else. I know that does happen and I would not like that happening to me.
We do not want anything for them apart from your word to love them and give them a good home. They do come with 2 cat carriers, enclosed litter tray, toys and a play bed.
They are good with children and we do have a dog, but then they have grown up together.
My 2 teenage children will be heartbroken to see them go as they are their cats and have had them for 7 years.

you don't say which area you are from so here is a link to a site that has cat rescues all over the UK if you scroll down on the left hand side to the area you live in and contact those rescues they might be able to help you. good luck

Thanks for the link kelly-joy. I would like to see if we can find them a home first. My kids are under enough stress with moving to the other side of the world. I dont want them worrying about the cats. Plus they would like to email the new owner from time to time. It's such a difficult thing to do, animals just pull on your heart strings don't they

Do you not have any family or friends that could look after them?

You could try putting and add in pets4homes, pet shops / vets in your area.

Have you only just realised you cant take them? Seems like youve left it a bit late to me . Sorry if I offend

It does seem a bit rushed to find them a new home, have you spoken to the vet about taking them with you I am sure there is a way, people take their pets with them all the time when they emigrate. My friend is taking her horse to Australia with her, its expensive but worth it.

awwww im so sad for you! it must be awful!!! i live in bangor/chester, so it is AGES away i really really hope you find a good home!

We have spent ages talking about it. We are taking our Japanese Akita who is 9 1/2 stone and is going to cost us about £5,000 to take over. The crate is so big that she can not even fly to where we are going and we need to drive 8 hours to pick her up then back again.
It's not that we are rushing to find them a new home, we knew that we were going last Feb. Charlie just gets too stressed out, even if you cover his cage, sit with him, talk to him or even stroke him. We have worked out that he will be in a cage for 31 hours with one short stop over. He will sit in the cage no problem as we have even left it around the house for him to get used to. But when he is on the move he just panics. I just ask myself is it right to put him through it if I don't have to Would I be crule if I did put him through it? that may be a better way of putting it. I have been looking at deaths with animals while in transit to other places around the world. Stress is the main cause for death.

No you don't offend me at all Jen, I have tried family and friends, but they already have too many animals, have health problems or spend alot of time on the go. They are on pets4homes and the vets and pet shops are a wash with other peoples animals for what ever reason. It may seem like I have left it a bit late, but I have been looking for a long time. sites such as these are my last hope. If I was not wanting the best for them then I could have given them to a few people but not together, or people whos first words are.....'are they free'. I guess I have been hoping that Charlie would get better so that we could take him, but he has not. Animals stay with us until they pass away. Parting with our cats is not an easy thing to do.

I dont really know what to suggest,

othere than taking him with you?

Maybe you could try put him in his pen everyday and taking him on a car journey, gradually building up the time he spends in there. You could spray the inside with feliway, or put a few drops of valerian on a blanket might help, or scullcap and valerian tablets. ( use one of his own blankets so it has his scent on).

Hope you find a solution

Have your tryed this place at orby, its not a very large place and its run by a lady.
She was fantastic i had a personal situation and i couldnt keep my 3 cats and she took them in for me just before christmas.
I hope this is the place and they are still open.If you know orby its the 1st house on your right i think. Its set back from the road and its white, they used to do dog rescue there many years ago, they may still do its been years since i was there.
