Needs Rehoming šŸ¾ i need to rehome my boy

my living situation doesnā€™t allow me to keep my baby. in the meantime he is safe and has everything he needs, but iā€™ve bought all the time i can to find him a new home. iā€™ve even resorted to looking at shelters in the immediate and surrounded areas, and they are all either full or donā€™t take pets from outside of their jurisdictions.

he is a beautiful soul, a 1.5y neutered male tux named Oscar. he would do best in a single-pet household without children, or even better as a ranch/large acreage cat- he has a high prey drive and loves the sunshine and getting dirty, despite my best efforts to keep his formalwear clean and pressed.

if you live in the inland empire and inland valley areas of southern california and may be able to take him, please contact me through my direct messages to discuss details. i am willing and able to bring him to you if you live around these areas.

If you are willing to ship him to Wisconsin, I can take him. I have cats, but I have experience introducing new cats to the household.

Otherwise, try reaching out to the rescues that usually help with the Devore shelter: Kitt Crusaders, BAR, etc. Reach out to the mods for the full list.

Do you anticipate your living situation will change? Perhaps one of the rescues will foster him until your situation changes and you can take him back.

thank you so much, i appreciate your kindness more than words can say. would it be okay to bear you in mind, in case i canā€™t find someone within driving distance of me? iā€™ve never shipped an animal before and wouldnā€™t be sure how to go about it.

thank you for the resources! <3

unfortunately iā€™m out of work right now with an injury, but im on the hunt for a new job. in the meantime though my future is very uncertain, and poor oscar has been waiting on me to sort things out for months. itā€™s just time for him to have a better shot at life, heā€™s a pure soul and deserves the world.

Did you ever find Oscar a home, or did circumstances change so you could keep him?

thank you for asking. my boy is still with me, the search is sort of on hold due to an urgent family situation

Oh no! Well I hope both the family situation and your situation improves soon, and that it allows Oscar to be able to stay with you. ā¤ļø
