Sadly rehoming my cats - help required E11

[backtoback]

Hello there,

It is with a very heavy heart that I write this email. I have 3 adorable cats who I adopted from kittens who I have to rehome. Unfortunately I have made the decision to move to Australia with my partner. We have looked into various ways of taking them with us, but I am afraid it is just not viable because it is too expensive, and we cannot guarantee that our rental home will allow us to have pets.

Suki is the eldest, she was rescued from Ireland and is approximately 6/7 years old. She is a little overweight and likes to sleep ALOT. She isn't too fussed on other cats, and I think would prefer a quieter home. She started life with me as an indoor cat, and then was able to go outside 3 years when we moved into a bigger flat. She was very timid as a kitten and is not very good around strangers. However, when you gain her trust she loves to be cuddled and kissed. She has gained in confidence as she has got older and will allow my friends and family to stroke her. She used to run away previously.

Janie is the middle black and white cat, approx 3 years old. We rescued her with her brother, though unfortunately he died as a kitten. She is very independent and likes to roam outside. When she is ready she loves nothing more than sleeping with a blanket. She enjoys being stroked and can be quite bossy with this, but she doesn't like laps. She has a good relationship with both Suki and Jasper.

Jasper is the smallest and cheekiest of the 3. He is around 2 years old and has a very awesome personality. He is like a little puppy who follows us round all day and wants attention. He is very playful with other cats, but can sometimes go too far and anger them (especially Suki). If he was to be rehomed with another cat, Janie would be best.

Is there anyone who could help us with the rehoming?

Thanks. We have been through each of those points now though.
