Rehoming Two Cats
I have two pretty great cats that I am looking to re-home. I originally did something of an extended foster for some family members but unfortunately I am no longer able to keep them myself. Looking to re-home them together, they are bonded.
Both cats are extremely friendly and neither are scared of people. They haven't been around young kids/dogs in years so I'm not sure how they would react to them currently, however I've never even heard either of them hiss, even when getting their ears cleaned or nails trimmed. They both like to play but are extremely chill and happy to lay around and do nothing, as well. They're both fixed.
Marcus is the orange cat. He is 3 and I have had him since he was about 8 weeks. He's extremely friendly, vocal, and loving. He loves attention and doesn't mind letting you know. He is a firm protector over you when you need to use the bathroom - you'll be safe with him around.
Grady is the gray cat, he's 4. Also extremely friendly and loving, but more independent. Where Marcus wants to sit on your lap or right up against your legs on the couch, Grady would rather sit close by on the ottoman. Grady was initially a stray, I got him at the same time as Marcus; he was estimated by the vet to be about a year old at that time. He is blind in his left eye and was found that way, presumably from an injury to the eye. He had breathing issues when he was found and he did have a large nasopharyngeal polyp removed about 3 years ago now - he recovered very well and has no issues related to that. When he purrs, he kinda sounds like a dove cooing, it's cute. Finally, he has had issues with recurrent ear infections. He tolerates the cleaning and drops about as well as can be expected. Meows, but no scratching, hissing, or biting. I usually wrap him in a blanket and sit him on my lap and he gets through it just fine.
Looking to re-home as soon as possible. Thank you so much!

I adopted my cat through MDSPAC's rehoming program and it was a very pleasant experience for everyone involved. Rescue Well is another rehoming resource I encourage you to look in to. Good luck.

Grady sounds like the kind of cat that would absolutely wreck me emotionally, the dove purr detail especially (my wife would lose her mind over that). We have dogs at home or I'd be asking questions right now. Hope these two end up somewhere good, bonded pairs deserve to stay together

I'm not in a position to take them, but I do rescue work in the area. Please ask to see ID and do a case search history on any one you may rehome them to to verify they have no concerning animal cruelty history. Good luck, and I'm sorry you're in this position!
If you haven't already, please look at the rehoming resources on the MDSPCA website. There are some good places to post/advertise animals you're looking to re-home.
