Rehoming a Cat
Before considering surrendering your cat to a rescue, explore alternative methods to address challenges you may be facing. Consult with a veterinarian to rule out any potential health issues contributing to behavioral problems. Behavioral training and enrichment can be effective, including providing stimulating toys, scratching posts, and a consistent routine. Consult with a professional animal behaviorist or trainer for personalized advice. If the issue is temporary, consider finding a trusted friend or family member who may be willing to foster your cat temporarily. For non-temporary situations, ask your vet to assist in finding a home, and social media platforms (local links below) and local community groups can also be resources for finding temporary or permanent homes. Exhausting these options helps ensure that surrendering to a rescue is a last resort, allowing your cat to stay in a familiar and loving environment whenever possible.
