*Courtesy post* Please help, I need to rehome my cat, 3 year old male orange. He is very sweet and friendly, loves attention. Unfortunately, since having a baby 6 months ago, he has not been accepting of the baby and cannot be around children due to him becoming jealous and mildly aggressive towards kids. He is an amazing cat, but needs to be with adults only. He currently lives with an older female cat and does not do well with dogs. I live in Athens and would be happy to coordinate anyone interested in coming to visit him for a meet and greet. If interested please call 267-424-5093.

Some other options for people.

Looking for affordable spay and neuter options in Southeast Ohio? 🐾

Fixing community cats and family pets prevents unwanted litters and saves lives! We’ve gathered a quick guide to low-cost spay/neuter resources, mobile clinics, and voucher programs serving Athens, Fairfield, Hocking, Muskingum, Perry counties, and beyond.

💡 Reminder: Appointments fill up fast, so reach out early to get on clinic schedules or voucher waitlists. Kittens can often be fixed once they hit 2 lbs / 8–10 weeks!

Save this post for later, and share it with neighbors, colony caretakers, and friends who might need it! 🐱❤️

*** Posted for a community member***
We provided care for a pregnant mother cat on our property. We brought her into our home on March 26, 2026. She gave birth to four kittens on April 9, 2026. The mother has since been spayed and we adopted her out. The kittens have received veterinary care including being tested for FIV/FELV. We really need to find the kittens a home because we already have six inside rescue cats. The kittens are healthy and free from all typical issues associated with community cats.
They are social, lovable, and litter box trained. They were fixed on July 12th and July 19th. They also received a rabies shot but will need to be vaccinated once homed. They need an owner committed to them for the longevity of their life up to twenty years. We would prefer an inside home safe from all the hazards’ cats face on the street. There are three males and one female. There is a rehoming fee of 25.00 for a male, and 40.00 for the only female. The rehoming fee will cover a fraction of the care we provided including spay/neuter.
If you are seriously interested in being a good home for these little guys, please call me at 740-818-5325.
