Homes for 3 cats

I don't know why I'm letting this bother me so much??? Probably because I had spent time around all of these plus the other 3 in the past, especially the oldest cat. When pet rescue groups tell you they cannot help, then you know you are in trouble. I just got through a little bit ago putting a free classified ad on petfinder.com for all three of them. Of course, they review it for content before posting the ad so it might be two days from now or next week. And I'm hoping it won't take that long. I wish I had thought of that last week. I never think of things when I need to. My problem is I am too much of an animal lover.

The ad starting running today in the local paper there in Clarksville today. My son has already had a bite on the cats. It is a woman in the medical field who has 3 children, one a toddler and an older son and daughter. She wants all three if possible. She is going to ask her landlord about him charging her anymore pet deposit as she paid $1,000 already for a bull mastiff.
She has two kittens but wants grown cats. She did ask my son why he was trying to find homes for them and he told her he was moving back to Memphis and was told that the landlord wanted a ridiculous amount for a pet deposit for them, she said ok. Unfortunately I guess that started her thinking about the pet deposit.
She is going to get back with him around 3:00 p.m. today after speaking with her landlord. And the great thing about it, her work is 5 minutes from where my son is living. So they may all have new homes together tonight, hopefully. I'm hoping she won't back out. This sounds so perfect for them.
She told him if anyone else called inquiring about them before he heard back from her to give her a call back. I want him to let her know also that he and I both have tried the no kill facility there in Clarksville and five no kill facilities here in Memphis to no avail.
So wish us luck everyone that they will all have new homes by the end of the day. There is a ad with pictures also on craigslist.com under pets and Clarksville.

Crossing my fingers that the woman can take the cats.

Update on the cats, all three cats now have new homes. Caesar is in one home with the woman that said she would like to have all three, she was not able to take the other two. However, she has one cat already around the age of Caesar and a younger cat. Caesar already was crawling under the covers rubbing against her feet and making weird noises. She was worried that those were growls he was making but my son told her it was not growling, and that he did that even with them all these years later. I think she had some concern because he was making these noises that he would bite or scratch.
My son told her he had never bitten or scratched. He was startled by her alarm clock though and hissed when it went off this morning. And he told her that if he was already rubbing up against her like that then he had already taken up with her. She was laughing at Caesar's antics, she said he has drug socks under the bed, stuffed animals, a sheet, etc. He told her it would take him a little longer probably to get used to a new place but that he would probably be settled down even more in a week's time. She said he is a smart cat and figured out at the retirement home last night how to open latches on interior doors and go into the rooms.
The other two found new homes together this afternoon right in the same apartment complex where my son is living now. As a matter of fact, the couple lived right across the drive from him. And they have a 7 week old kitten that they wanted playmates for. Those two love to play. So they should do fine. Just thought I'd let everyone know.
