I need help rehoming my cat, I’m sorry

Cats
1

The title says it all. I know some people might judge, but at this point, it is what it is. I have two wonderful cats that I love so much. I’ve had them for over a year, and they’re well taken care of. Unfortunately, I lost my job, and things started to fall apart. I’ve been homeless since August 31st, 2024. Now I have a job, but I’m just jumping from hotel to hotel. It’s impossible to get into housing; they always say I don’t make enough, etc. These past couple of months, I promise they’ve been okay, but I feel so bad they’re going through these dark times with me. I don’t know how and when I’m gonna get out of this situation. It’s hard for me to take care of myself, and my dream is to put them in a beautiful home. I’m in the Los Angeles County area, specifically San Dimas, and I’m wondering if anyone knows good shelters where I can drop them off. I don’t want to do this, but I know it’s time to let them go. They don’t deserve this, and I don’t have the funds or energy to keep jumping around with them. It’s just been so hard. I want to ensure they go to a no-kill shelter. I’m highly self-aware, so any negative thing you say, I probably have already told myself in the mirror. My babies deserve a steady home with loving people.

Have you checked out local rescues? Some might help with rehoming or even foster care.

Check out the ASPCA or local shelters that are non-kill. They might have options for you.

You’re doing a brave thing by considering rehoming. Just know that you’re not alone in this.

I can’t imagine how hard this must be. If you need support, there are local groups online that can help.
