Grimace Needs a Home

Jen from Spreydon

Hi all,

We're having a bit of a tough time with old Grimace. While he all he wants is food and a lap, he also has it in for our existing cats. So much so that today he's caused more injuries to one of our girls. She's back in the a cone and I'm thinking it's just not worth… View more
Hi all,

We're having a bit of a tough time with old Grimace. While he all he wants is food and a lap, he also has it in for our existing cats. So much so that today he's caused more injuries to one of our girls. She's back in the a cone and I'm thinking it's just not worth the risk of it happening again.
Grimace is very affectionate but I think needs to be in a home where he's the only cat, even more perfect would be on a lifestyle or farm.
If anyone knows of a home for Grimace, please let me know asap.
He will need to be moved very soon, within a week. I don't really know what to do with him. Any ideas are much appreciated. Just a reminder SPCA won't take him, neither will Cat Protection League, or Cat Rescue.
He's only been fixed for a week so will slowly get more and more relaxed, but sadly the damage has been done to our cats and they need to be put first.
Hopefully we can find him a home!!

Abandoned cat?

Timothy from Sydenham

Does anyone in the Somerfield area know if this cat (see photos) belongs to a home? It looks like it's been through the wars – scarily thin, with what looks like an infected left eye. There is also a lot of puss in both eyes. It's right eye looks bloodshot, and the left ear and nose … View moreDoes anyone in the Somerfield area know if this cat (see photos) belongs to a home? It looks like it's been through the wars – scarily thin, with what looks like an infected left eye. There is also a lot of puss in both eyes. It's right eye looks bloodshot, and the left ear and nose both look very sore. S/he is very friendly. For the past few days I have been feeding it on McCombs St (Selwyn St end) and providing a little TLC, but I think it needs to be taken to a vet. Just curious as to whether s/he is homeless, abandoned, or perhaps has run away? Any help would be great, thanks.
