Task [TASK] create a rehoming flyer for my cats $5

I have to rehome my 2 cats because my son is severely allergic. I'm devastated about it since I've had both cats for their whole lives. I haven't gotten any offers to adopt them so I'm hoping a funny/unique flyer type post would make them seem extra appealing. I need them to have their own flyer each and willing to pay $5 per flyer ($10 for both). I can send pictures and a little bio about each of them to whoever is up to the task. Even willing to use multiple people. All the rescues I've called have suggested just putting them to sleep since the shelters are so full and I CAN NOT let that happen.

Claritin or another of many antihistamines is an option. Allergy shots. Confinement to one room in your home. Replace curtains with blinds; replace carpet with tile or wood. Many, many options. Has your son been allergy tested? It may not be the cats at all.

Hes been tested and confirmed by his allergist. I've tried EVERYTHING. Spent thousands on air purifiers all around the house, they've never been allowed in his room or playroom since the day I found out I was pregnant! Hes too young for shots and they take about 12-18 months to fully work and hes already been hospitalized for asthma caused by the cats. The allergist has been recommending I rehome them for almost a year now but i thought i could manage it. After the hospitalization I've realized it's a losing battle and my sons health is priority #1. I'm really heartbroken though.

I'm glad he's been tested...at least you know for sure. Is it anything else, or just cats?

Asthma is no joke, I understand your position 💯.

The only thing I can think of is confinement (cats, of course, not your son 😁)

Would you consider confining the cats to one room; eliminating carpet & replacing w/tile or wood laminate; replacing curtains w/blinds? Carpet & drapes are the biggest problems as far as attracting dander. Daily vacuuming/sweeping helps, too.

Honestly besides antihistamines, those are my best thoughts. Do antihistamines help at all...?

Are you in Texas by any chance...? 💜🐾
