   IT IS NOT SAFE to give animals away for free! And there are tons of local rescue groups that would help you. It's not just shelters that advocate for pets. Look on nextdoor or Facebook.

   Breeding trumps training. Aggression was bred into that breed for a few hundred years. It's not gonna change unless it was bred by tons of breeders who are accredited and backyard breeding completely banned. Better to not allow them as folks are backyard breeding all the time. It's why I would never get a dog from the shelter - dog breeding is super important - we should not be rewarding and creating vast systems that are increasing randomly bred dogs.

   You can contact the shelters and ask to list them as curtesy listings. They can help vet the potential owners and the cats can stay while folks can call your friend and arrange adoption. It really helps a lot and takes some work off of the shelters.

   Ya please do not give them away for free via reddit. I work in rescue and have seen these cats scooped up, used for dog training and worse. It makes me sick. I wish bad people didnt exist but they do. I feel your pain and this is a total shit situation. Im angry that you all were put in this situation. At least charge a fee and run a background check or widen the scope of rescues (there are hundreds). Have you tried some smaller groups like kitty kind, whiskers a gogo, bronx tail - there are so many. If the rescue is in greater nyc area and can take the cats, I am happy to help transport. I know many shelters are hurting right now - its a problem but please do your best to give these babies a fair shot at a good life.

   Friend seeking to rehome 5 FREE cats - My friend is based in Forest Hills and seeking to rehome 5 cats. His sister abandoned them in his home and has not returned to retrieve them. He had over 40 abandoned at his place previously but was able to give them away but now has a few left he wants to place in loving homes. He has tried to care for them but is facing eviction from his landlord now. All 5 cats are males and neutered. There are two 4-year-old cats, and three 1-year-old cats. They are house broken, but have not received microchips or vaccinations yet. Cats are friendly to people, other cats, towards dogs, and towards children. Before anyone asks: YES he has tried to contact shelters and animal groups but they have not gotten back to him fast enough/they are maxed out and he wants to give them away NOW to people who LEGITIMATELY want cats. Please DM me for more details so that I can redirect you to him. PLEASE help these cats find a good home. This is not a scam post, we can prove this through whatever means.
