    One of my workmates has two little black kittens that need homes. One is all black and the other has a couple of white hairs under its chin. They're 10 weeks old and charging around the place so she really needs homes soon. My own rescue cat just had her litter so I can't home them myself. Pm me if your interested!

    Hi! There are 3 lovely kittens in the garage of the block of apartments where I live (Castleforbes, Dublin 1). Two are 2 black and 1 tricolour. They are very sweet and very hairy, like small lions. Some people fed them but they are in danger as not everybody is as fond of them as I am. They used to be 5 but one got killed in a horrible way (sby not pleased with their presence) and the other was already rescued.
    If sby would like to save one of these fluffy kitties please contact me. I am sure they will make very nice pets.
    Unfortunately I cannot take them as I have already 2 gerbils and 2 rabbits.
    Thanks
    Iva: ivacgaspar@hotmail.com

    I received some photos of the kitties so thought I should add them here. There are two black and 1 tricolour. There are also 2 older ones (1 male, 1 female who appears to be pregnant) and the Mammy. If you are interested, please contact Iva (contact details above)

    Hey everyone, Im looking for a home for a 5 month old female kitten, she's completly black. Shes quite hyper and loves nothing more than to play. She loves lots of affection too. Im writing this on behalf of my boyfriends mum. Recently my boyfriends sister had to move house and her new house will not allow pets. So my boyfriends mum has the kitten till we find it a home, the mum would keep the kitten but she already has 3 cats and 3 dogs so there isn't possibly any permanent room for this kitten. The kitten is in Tipperary town but can also be brought to galway with me when im up and down. So if theres anyone there willing to give this kitten a home please contact me...

    Hi all

    My daughter brought two young ferrets despite being told not too:rolleyes: I really need to find homes for them. If anyone can offer these cute little things a good home I would be delighted. AFAIK one is male and one is female. They are quite tame and I would say over the course of time they would become even friendlier.

    Hi all,

    I'm pretty new to this so I hope it's a correct section.
    I'm the owner of 1 year old Samoyed, and unfortunately current situation push me to that move. I hope to find a good and loving home for my dog here in Ireland.

    As he's young he's still full of energy, very playful and very friendly. If anyone is out there interested with good attitude, please let me know :)

    Hey there,

    I have a Yellow Belly Turtle and id like to find it a new home. Ideally with someone who already has turtles.

    Its a very happy lively and playfull turtle - always pushing around his stones at the bottom of his tank, diving off his platform and climbing up the purifier and playing with the water coming out. She loves getting of the tank for a wander too and is usually very hard to find afterwards and covered in dust looking like tumbleweed...

    Im going travelling later in the year and she needs a new tank as she's is too big for the one she is in. She is about the size of a hand!

    Sparkles really is a great pet...

    Please contact me for pictures but ill post some later also.

    Thanks,

    Neil


    Hi Neil, Did you find a home for your turtle yet? If not I might be able to help.

    Hi Folks,

    Just wondering if anybody has any ideas on where we might get a tibby pup or young dog to replace our pet of 13yrs who died recently.

    One in Munster area would suit best

    Regards

    Hiya!

    If you're still looking for a home for your Samoyed please let me know.

    We currently have a 13 month old female Samoyed who is just crying out for a playmate!

    Your Sammy sounds just like ours - playful and energetic! Our Samoyed is very attached to us - too much so perhaps, and it's getting to the stage where she absolutely hates to be left alone for any length of time even if it's just to go to the shop.

    We've been thinking of getting another Samoyed for her as a companion for quite some time now and yours sounds perfect as it sounds like he has a lovely temperament aswell and they'd be of a similar age. We'd love to get her a similar aged Sammy to play with.

    Do you mind me asking what part of Ireland you're in?

    Thanks!

    I have a gorgeous 2 yo corn snake that needs to find a new home. He's beautifully and vividly marked, was 46" right after his last shed two weeks ago, and is a brilliant feeder.

    I'd love him to go to someone who has previous experience with snakes and/ or reptiles. His vivarium is hand-made solid pine (pictured) can come with him if needed.

    Drop me a PM if you're interested - I'm in South Dublin but don't have transport :o

    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I posted up an advert on this thread because I want to adopt a male kitten. I've been swamped with loads of replies and don't get online often so can I ask that if anyone is sending me an offer to please include as much detail as possible about the kittens they are giving up for adoption. Also, please don't message me saying you know that theres someone giving away a kitten unless you're definite they are still giving it away and you can link me to a detailed post about the kitten/ tell me the details yourself.
    To reiterate, I am looking to adopt a male kitten(preferably with shots and information regarding health,age)in the Dublin region. Colour isn't important but I really have to have as much detail as is possible.
    Thanks everyone!

    I need a good home for my two 1 year old cats, they're sisters, Mooch (a torty tabby) and Twilight (black from head to paws). They're very attached to each other and are no bother as they play together, like to wander about and meet the neighbours and looking after 2 is no different from 1. Mooch comes and goes when she pleases but when she's home will curl up beside you with a purr that's on loud speaker, when she comes in she miaows until she finds you, so cute. Twilight is a little more aloof, she doesn't cuddle but will always be nearby and loves havin her belly rubbed, you have to lean right down to hear her purr but she is so fun and quirky and has the most beautiful eyes. Twilight and Mooch have a nice life right now and I would love to find someone who will take care of them, give them lots of love and outside access and enjoy them as much as I do.

    Please get in touch if you are interested. Will deliver within the Dublin/Wicklow area.

    Home wanted for a lovely two year old Ginger tom in Sligo area. Has been left behind as his owners have moved back to Poland and abandoned him. I am going to neuter and get him vaccinated but unfortunately my own male cat will not allow him near the house so need to find a home asap. I am willing to travel if someone will give him the home he deserves.

    Hi a stray cat had 2 kittens around my parents house, they will come right up to you for food and will let you pet them while they are eating. They are about 12 weeks old. Both are tabby and white. I am in the munster area.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 93 ✭✭chachabinx


    A few months back there was a dog in my work carpark all day. It was a Friday & when I was leaving she was still there & the gate were to be locked all weekend so I couldn't leave her.
    I brought her to my nans & washed & fed her (if I brought her back to mine my mother would have killed me like the 100 times she has before for bringing strays home)..

    So anyway my nan put an ad in the herald & then on the Wednesday she decided to see if the dog was chipped, it was & thank god it went back to the rightful owner...
    That night she got a call from a man saying "If you get a call from a forgeign (eastern europe) man claiming to own the dog its not his.. he is using the dogs for bait in dog fighting"
    The next day she gets a call from a forgein guy "hello you have my dog"

    My nan went mad "I dont have your ****in dog ye scumbag"

    So I set up load of ads online to try & poach him to ring me.. meet him somewhere & follow him home, unfortunately he didn't call!

    I have a cross between a collie and a lurcher, very good with children and is full of energy and very playful, i am going travelling so have to give her a new home.
    Would anyone be interested?


  • Registered Users Posts: 155 ✭✭Adventure Pout


    Hello,
    I really really need help with this case.. I live in an apartment complex and I saw lots of kittens around, particularly 2 kittens (approx.8-9 weeks old) with their young mother (approx. 5-6months old).
    I managed to approach them, and since I fed them.But knowing that the mother can be pregnant again, I contacted Cats Protection to TNR them. The person I talked to, said that they can do the mother but the kittens are too young and likely wild, so they have to be put down!!! On top of that I have to pay for everything!!! I told her that I don't agree at all to have those kittens put to sleep because this is still possible to tame them at that young age (am talking through my experiences with stray cats). She did not really believe me, so I said to her that I agree to pay for the neutering of the mother cat, and I will find a way to have the kittens fostered or homed.
    Unfortunately, I can't foster or home them because of my cat - he needs to be the only cat at home (I tried before and it did not work out well at all).
    So, I am wondering if anybody can help me with that? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE... We will trap the cat and kittens this thursday morning. I will then take them to the vet for a health check etc... mother cat will be neutered on thursday and release the next day.
    There is a very fluffy black kitten - a bit nervous but I guess with time and patience, s/he will be fine..
    The other kitten is a lovely calico - seems to be friendly and adventurous, as she comes closer and closer to me every time I come to feed them.. She even let me pet her - I say "her" because usually calico cats are female..
    Please HELP ME to find a home or foster home for those babies.. I live in North side of Dublin. PM me if you need other details..
    I will try to take pics and post them here befor Thursday..

    We are looking for a cat or kitten to adopt, based in Dublin 24. Preferably female as males have wandered on us before! thanks


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 128 ✭✭cosnochta


    My partner and I wish to adopt a female long-haired (or semi long-haired) kitten. We would prefer to adopt from a rescue so we would have rescue back-up.

    We are only looking for a female. We need her to have longish hair as I am allergic to Domestic Short-hair cats, but have been ok with long-haired cats. We are not interested in a feral kitten. I have had feral kittens in the past and they never were fully tame. We are looking for a companion who likes sitting on laps, being petting and would like to be mostly indoors. Colour is not important, though we don't want a white cat.

    We can collect in the Dublin area only as we don't have a car.

    We can offer a warm, safe home with two animal-mad adults. There are no other resident pets, but there is a visiting Shih-Tzu (she's mine, but she mostly lives at my family home). Cat would be under the care of Argyle and Bainbridge and would have all necessary vaccinations and would be neutered.

    I hope I don't sound fussy, but I'm trying to be as honest and detailed as I can so that we don't waste anybody's time. We are looking to adopt from a rescue so if you have details of recues that have kittens or if you are a from a rescue, then please get in touch.


  • Registered Users Posts: 155 ✭✭Adventure Pout


    I have managed to trap 3 long hair beautiful tuxedo this morning.
    I left the kittens to the guy (Paddy) from Cat Protection. He said he will take them to the vet and find a home for them. However, if you don't want feral kittens, then it might not be suitable.
    You can also contact the North Dublin County SPCA - ask for Marie or leave your phone and she will call you back. All her cats are in foster and she desperately need to find home for them.
    If a feral cat is in foster home, it will help them to socialize with humans etc... So to be honest, a feral kitten can be very very adorable.
    I rescued mine from the street as a kitten and he is absolutely loving towards me and my partner...All his sibblings are also very loving to their new homes...
    Good luck

    Hi,

    I have al litter of kittens living in my back garden, cat protection are coming to take them away Thurs, but if anyone wants to take one, or knows of someone looking for one, can you let me know, trying to find them homes. These are feral kittens but from reading on other posts, they can be tamed, i have handled them already and can rub their heads when they're feeding.

    There are 3, i think the black one is a male.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,568 ✭✭✭candy-gal1

    I hope you manage o find a good home for them all!

    I also have his kitty litter, bed etc to give.

    I am in the dublin 3 area. I am willing to travel to give the kitten to a good home.

    Please let me know if you are interested or if anyone knows anyone who may be interested.

    ohhh they are so sweet.. I really hope they will find a home and that Cat Protection will not put them to sleep...when I called their nr the woman on the phone told me that if the kittens are over 6-8weeks old, they are too feral and they will put them to sleep..
    Now I feel so angry at myself because last Thursday, the guy from Cat Protection came and we trapped 3 gorgeous fluffy black kittens and he said he will try to find them a home...but I am not 100% sure if they will get a home...
    If I were you, once you trapped the kittens, keep them and bring them to the DSPCA - at least you know they will get a chance to be tamed and adopted... They don't put the kittens to sleep unless they can't save him from severe injuries or illness... Good luck...

    HI, cat protection came today ( Paddy?) anyway he was telling me he got kittens last thurs and they all got homes, so maybe they're your ones? He mentioned they were fluffy things anyway..

    Not so good today, i stopped feeding them yday morning as the woman told me so this morning the mother and only 2 kittens were outside the door (black one went AWOL overnite??..no idea)...anyway he got the mother, felt sorry for her in the cage, but now the mystery, the kittens have totally disappeared, as soon as the guy came out the back garden with the trap, they ran and i've not seen the two black / white ones since. We waited for half hr for them to come back out, no sign. I worked from home today - nothing. I've left food out, and went into garden as i thought i'd here them calling the mother if they were hungry - silence. They have been here 3 weeks now, and all of a sudden gone, they cant climb the fence and there's no real other way out of the garden ( that i know of )..anyway will see what happens, hopefully they will turn up.

    But i think the ones you got taken away were re-homed.

    Just wanted to say that we are still on the lookout. We have registered our details with the DSPCA and Catsaid and they are on the lookout for us. Are there any other Dublin-based rescues that I could try? Or does anyone know of a female long-haired kitten that is in need of a home.
    Thanks!

    Thanks very much Bulmers for your post..It makes my day... Yes, it was Paddy who came to trap the kittens last thursday, and I am so glad he managed to find a home for them all. They were soooo gorgeous and I wish I could have keep them but I don't have the space and my resident cat will be too stressed...
    I hope your kittens will come back and you will manage to get them a furever home...keep us post...

    This kitten has been in my back garden for two weeks now. (Sligo town) I know you're not supposed to feed strays. Eek. But, he's very cute, as you can see- looks like a Sylvester kitty with his markings. He's long haired and very soft.

    He let me pet him, finally, and I can feel his hair is matted in two spots and you can feel his spine/ribs, so he's not been eating well. He needs a wash and some affection.

    I think if someone adopts him soon he'll make a very handsome companion. I should say, I don't know if this is a boy or a girl kitty!

    My own two cats have no interest in letting him inside at all. Lots of hissing ensues.

    Can anyone give this kitten a home?

    Hi there

    We have a white german shepherd as a pet and were looking for a new home for him.
    Theres a baby coming into the house and we have no more room for him. Hes a brilliant pet, very obediant, not hyper, friendly to other dogs and kids, and is a brilliant watch dog!
    Hes perfect however he has a probem with his pancreas and needs to take enzyme supplements with each meal. He requires a low fat highly digestable diet, things like boiled chicken, potatoes and veg, We buy him low fat highly digestable royal canin dry food, this can be costly but there is cost cutting measures, like if you supplement the dry food for potatoes and the like.
    He loses weight fairly rapidly if he's not given the enzyme tablets, alternatively instead of the tablets he can be given lamb/pig pancreas choped with his meal.
    So as you can see he needs a home for someone who will care for him and has the time for him, but he really is a great dog itd be a shame to put him down but we'll be left with no other choice. :(
    He's also already neutered and is 4 years old. Thanks

    Hi there

    We have a white german shepherd as a pet and were looking for a new home for him.
    Theres a baby coming into the house and we have no more room for him. Hes a brilliant pet, very obediant, not hyper, friendly to other dogs and kids, and is a brilliant watch dog!
    Hes perfect however he has a problem with his pancreas and needs to take enzyme supplements with each meal.

    A lot of people had said to us to put a sick dog down but he's perfectly healthy with the supplements frown.gif
    He's also already neutered and is 4 years old. Thanks in advance :)

    try contacting one of the welfare groups if you can not find a home http://www.dogsindistress.org/aboutus.php

    failing that contact the UK German Shepherd group - there is no need for the dog to be put to sleep
