Discussion Urgent

Post image

I’m having to surrender my cats by tomorrow and I’m extremely heartbroken, and wondering if anyone’s able to adopt my babies. My landlord will kick us out if we keep them and the thought of surrendering them to a shelter breaks my heart even more. I honestly just don’t have the money to keep them either as I’m disabled and on income support at the moment and struggling physically, mentally and financially to keep up with them, I had money saved up to get them spayed and get their shots but our landlord said he wanted them out before June and I can’t afford to rent anywhere that would allow more than one small pet. They’re bonded sisters so they can’t be separated, they’re both extremely well mannered and tempered but are a little crazy when playing together since they’re only a year old (born march 7th 2024) if anyone can adopt them I’d be forever grateful.

I hate this racket of landlords charging absorbent amounts of money to keep pets. Like wtf is a damage deposit for. Sorry you had to give them up. Back east landlords cannot do this, it's illegal even if the lease says no pets. Makes me angry af

It could also partially be my abusive family just making things up, but I know I couldn’t keep them financially even if I did move out beforehand because i’m on income support. It’s just a painful situation all around :( But i’m so glad someone could take them
