Hi, I'm new here. I have several stray/pet cats (half stray, half pet) that I need to find homes for. They only live outdoors and I've been feeding them since they were born. Unfortunately we are moving within a year or so and cannot take any of them to our new location. I would like to see if I can find them homes myself first (for free) before sending them to a shelter. All the local 3rd party shelters I've contacted are full and couldn't take them. There are two humane society shelters here, but one is a kill shelter and has mandatory donation ($20 each, ugh). The other is no-kill, but as I said, I would like to try to find them homes myself, I would just like to know how to word the advertisement. One thing though is I am a little hesitant to do this, although I am desperate and I don't want to abandon them. I am just scared I might attract weirdos and anyone that might want to harm me or the cats (once they take them). Know what I mean? Another thing is that since they are outdoors and considered strays, they have fleas and stuff, no vaccinations, but they are pretty healthy. I cannot afford to de-flea, de-tick, etc them unless someone here advises on a flea product. So I'm not sure if I will be liable for any infestation the new owner might get from my cats. Of course I will be honest and tell them this. They are all pretty much friendly, I don't consider them feral at all. I just don't want to abandon them, they might have a hard time finding food by themselves. The local newspaper said they can put my ad in their paper for free (for as long as possible I think), since my ad is not for profit anyway (unless they change their minds).
Anyway, please help and ask for further details if you require, thank you.
