    Oh dear, wanted to make some space in my inbox and accidentally deleted ALL messages..

    Will the lovely people who offered help in homing this kitty (if needed) pls PM me with a heading "home for kitty" and let me know if they will be still interested if the vet check comes up with some health issues?

    Ewa is at home today and tomorrow so took the kitty in but she is going back to work on Tuesday and under no circumstances can leave kitty with her dogs alone in the flat.

    So whoever offered to take kitty on needs to be able to pick her up tomorrow evening (Ewa does not have a transport).


    Still - we are waiting for what the vet says tomorrow although I have a feeling we may not have the blood results back the same day.

    I am covering the cost of vet/tests tomorrow and kitty has a carrier, litter box, bag of clumping litter, litter scoop, bag of dry food, several tins of cat food.

    Please PM me with your offer and conditions of that offer - in case we really need it.

    Thanks a lot.

    Vet booked for 3pm today.

    The home offers we have so far can only pick up at the weekend but Ewa goes back to work tomorrow and can not leave the kitty alone with her 4 dogs.

    Any ideas?

    :(

    Not even in the bedroom with the door firmly shut? or even in the cat carrier? Anything is better than being returned...........

    Or has she any neighbours she knows in the flats that would have it just until friday? or ask the RSPCA to keep t until then?

    Glad you have got firm offers for the weekend.

    I got a pen for my cats from ebay. It cost 30 pounds or so, maybe too late for this thread, but its something a cat can be in, its got mesh on the sides and top to let air in and zips up, so the cat could be in a home that had other pets in it.

    RPSCA wont take a cat in for a few days as far as I know.

    This is what I have.

    I agree, its not ideal but surely the cat can be in the cat carrier while your friend is at work?
  • I live in this flat only one month. I don't know my neighbours.
    She is in a bedroom but she scared of dogs.

    3 of the dogs are German Shepherds, cat in a carrier will not be safe - the cat is in a separate bedroom but wouod not risk living alone in a flat with dogs anyway, sorry
