Wanted cat or kitten! Pleaseeeeeeee

Wanted cat or kitten! Pleaseeeeeeee

Hi

We are after a cat or kitten as our previous Tom cat disappeared never to return to us, many months ago....

Ideally we would like to rehouse a cat or kitten which is in need of a loving family : Boy (aged 6) and Girl (aged 9).

We have all the required cat things.

Fingers crossed!!!


If you can offer us a kitten or cat then please send me a private message via this forum.


Also see a nice attached picture to make this posting more interesting.
It is a kitten belonging to friends and they are keeping him!

[added later]
We need a short haired type of cat or kitten because long haired cats will be bad for various long haired pet related allergies that we have. However a short haired cat or kitten will be fine.

I've got a couple of Orientals, father and son. Now, the mother, a longhaired smoke/havanna Oriental needs a new home because she's hunting the neighbours' rabbits.

Interested?

It's the little guy on the right, the chocolate one. Pi, but I call him Usama. His mother. The ginger tabby is his father, Nemirov.

Thanks Gooner.

However I should have written .... that we need a short haired type of cat or kitten because long haired cats will be bad for various long haired pet related allergies that we have. However a short haired cat or kitten will be fine.

But many thanks anyhow.

I expect someone else reading this forum thread my be able to help you out and could send you a private message asking you about it, rather than taking this thread off topic! e.g. look at the profile of Gooner and select send private message.

Re: Wanted cat or kitten! Pleaseeeeeeee

Would you also be interested in rescuing a cat or kitten?

If so you should search on google under "tierheim"

here is a few

http://www.strubeli.ch/

http://www.tier-heim.ch/Katzen.htm

They also seem to have some shorthaired cats and you can feel good by helping a cat find a home

Re: Wanted cat or kitten! Pleaseeeeeeee

Yes, there is another shelter in Zurich, methinks. There are a lot of refugee cats, for example form Spain and Italy where some for god forsaken reason they kill cats, especially black cats. I'll see if I can fish out the address. I looked there as well, and there were some lovely cats, kittens too.

Re: Wanted cat or kitten! Pleaseeeeeeee

The website is http://www.meinetiere.ch/ her email is sylvia@meinetiere.ch

She won remember us as we got ours 4 years ago. Check some of the pictures out on the site. Also she only speaks German.

One thing I will say is these cats are pedergree and come with certificates. That means you could put them into competitions (we dont) and it also means they cost money to buy.

Ours were 600chf each but worth every penny or franc i guess.

In case you need more convincing:-

Thanks so much Lee! I definately don't need more convincing and I think 600 CHF is a cheap crimbo present from my boyfriend (not sure he'll agree with that!)

I normally wouldn't but I have a fussy boyfriend who I have been trying to convince for months and the only way he said he'd agree is if it was a particular breed of cat. Obviously my cunning plan is to drag him down to a shelter one weekend and hope he falls in love with one. Either that or I'll have to turn on the waterworks

Re: Wanted cat or kitten! Pleaseeeeeeee

Hi,

First of all I am so sorry about the cat, that s hard. If none of these suggestions from all of these wonderful cat lovers work out, my mother-in-law knows a farm near Zurich where you can get kittens that are very loving and cute. (dunno if they have any right this second though)
