Hey folks, I'm moving from Mechanicsville to travel while I figure some life chapter things out and plan the next steps of my life. Looking to re-home my outdoor cat that I had trapped, spayed and rabies vaccinated.

I've had her for a few years, she doesn't have any front teeth so even if she does get rabies she can't break skin to be a disease vector. Her name is Harvey Toothless (two-face) with the tortie pattern split down her face and being mostly toothless. She might be about 8 or 9 years old, no one can really tell me.

She loves being outside with you doing yard chores and hunting. I've seen her catch a bird, crickets, cicadas, and even rabbits (on Easter no less). I feel like she would be a perfect barn cat at a farm and I am willing to drive her to her new home hours away.

She loves pets, cuddles, rubs. She's not a lap cat but likes being warm inside during the winter. I've seen her get along well with other neighborhood cats, though I have seen her be chased by others. She gets along OK with indoor cats, but tends to be territorial and will mark or pee on things on the floor. I have gotten her to use a litterbox successfully but she still sniffs around the house to urinate.

I've built her an outdoor shelter she uses and is okay sleeping in it overnight in the winter and will come with her. I give her hyperthyroid pill once a day with wetfood. She eats dry food too. Please ask your friends! My other options to take her in elsewhere have failed and seems like no one wants an older cat.

Hello! I'm interested in homing Harvey Toothless. We have a barn on a small pasture, I think it could be a good place for her. DM me if you'd like to chat more!

If you don’t find a home for her, she can come be my outside tortie. After time, we can try introducing her to our 4 inside cats.

We have a shed and would give her a good outdoor life, but we are city dwellers.

My coincidental twin kitty:

I hope this sweet heart gets picked up soon. But I do think keeping her is your best bet for you and her. She’ll give you love and comfort while you a transition to your new life and you can provide her with the stability that she will need. I worry if that she goes to a shelter they will put her down.

I can’t take her personally as I already have an indoor cat and a dog but I have asked my friends around so I will dm if they are interested.

My parents got an aggressive dog last year and aren't training it properly, it attacked their inside cat once already, a neighbors dog, and knocked over a biker. My things are in storage and I'm traveling/living out of my car, and she can't stay at my previous residence with my old roommates

Oof, sounds like they need to train the dog or give it to someone who will.
