Will move this now as there's been no definite update.

  Yep just found the other thread with the offer of help thanks.

Janey ~ I was stumped as well cos I could have sworn I saw an offer for the cats too.
Anyway it just occured to me to look in the FIV section and that's where it is

I think the cats were taken by someone on Cat Chat (someone definitely offered, but it hasn't been updated for a while), not sure what happened to the rabbit though.

I couldn't see anything on the Cat Chat thread other than a plea for a home, I'll pm and see if I can find out.

Any news please?

I think most rescues are in the same boat as CP. We get calls once in a while asking if we can look after cats while people move or are going to be away for a while. We have to say no as due to waiting lists of strays etc waiting to come in, we can't tie up fosterers.

It might be worth asking Swale branch (they are based on Sheppey) if they know of someone. They are a nice bunch.

It is worth speaking to a few catteries - now it is off-season, a lot of them will do a deal for a weekly/Monthly rate. They have to be up-to-date with vaccinations.

If you haven't already done then I would ring ALL rescues on this list not just CP as I can think of a couple on that list who just may be able to help you:

Thankyou everyone for your responses.
Janeyk,I am in Gillingham,Kent.No,sadly my friends are not able to accommodate the pets as well as me.I have contacted the cats protection to ask about fostering,but they said they are unable to help.I think that a cattery will work out too expensive,but I have contacted a couple any way.
Blackcat,thankyou.I will definitely check them out

I used to use this service when I was in Chatham: K9nanny.co.uk. They were very reliable and cared well for my animals when I went away. They may not be able to help you directly, but may be able to refer you to someone who can assist. If it is only for a short period - like until you find new accommodation, then they may be able to assist with reduced rates etc ...

Thanks Sue! I always like to ask but as she's answered the same question on CC that's fine

It's Gillingham, Kent according to the thread on CC Janey x

Hiya, I hope you manage to sort out short term care for them, and its not too long before you're in your own place 

[Janeyk]

Hi, which area are you in please? it will help to add it to the title 

So sorry that you're in this situation.  I suppose you've tried all family/friends? would the friends you're staying with not let you keep the pets with you if it's only going to be a short time until you can get something sorted?  Have you contacted rescues in your area? they may have some fosterers who will be able to help you for a time.  The other thing is a cattery but may be too long for them and expensive depending on the time?

Best of luck with sorting something out
