I took a stray cat in, she was pregnant! shes had 5 lovely kittens,
I have found good homes for 2, and im keeping one + mom,
how can i find the right people and homes for the other 2 ?
one is black and white and one black, they are 6 weeks old, I wont let them go until they are at least 8 weeks or more.I live west midlands.U.K
Best thing is to contact your local CPL (Cat’s Protection League) who will rehome them after vetting potential owners.
They will also give them any jabs they need and give the new owner a voucher to get them neutered/spayed.
These numbers may help you:
Mabel Jenkins Shelter, Packhorse Lane, Hollywood, Birmingham – 01564 822020
Cats Protection: 294 Vicarage Rd, Kings Heath, Birmingham – 0121 441 2480
Cats Protection: 5-7 Abbey End, Kenilworth – 01926 850054
Additionally, as YOU are rehoming one of the kittens plus mum they might well pay for both cats to be spayed. I found and rehomed a tom cat stray last year and they paid for him to be done (even though I am not on benefits or anything) as the cost of this was much less than them having to collect the cat and care for him themselves.
You could advertise etc but there is no way you will have peace of mind as to where they are going unless you actually know the people.

advertise them in ad mag!!!
advestise them in your local pet shops .. if possible with pics!!!
tell all your friends that you have 2 kittens for sale and ask if they know anyone who would want 1 of them
remember to say if they are male or female!!!

Give the kittens to the local humane society (last resort), place an ad in the classifieds of your newspaper, and/or tack up signs everywhere.

Don’t give them away or advertise them.
Contact your local Cats Protection League, they’ll vet homes and neuter and microchip them too.
They’ll probably help with having Mum and the other one done as well.
Well done to Heather J, you should take her advice.

You shouldn’t have any problems finding loving homes for your babies.
Try advertising on some of the animal rescue forums. Some of the folks on there would be able to assist with home checks, to ensure you get the best possible homes available

I went to the pet store and they let me stand outside the store and give them away. I advertized them as superkittens, able to eat, climb and jump over objects that didn’t scare them. Good luck on finding homes and rub mama cat under the chin for me.

Put posters up and a ad in your local paper and post office.
