A Lefty Writes

As some of you already know, life since the move has been a bit challenging. Basically, my girlfriend and my cats are not getting along. The primary issue is discovery of cat allergies. When she came over to my old apartment she thought it was just because I didn't clean often that her eyes got watery and itchy. Turns out even in a relatively clean environment the problem is still there.

She's been pretty miserable in our new place. We've spent the past month trying to figure out if there's a way for everyone to get along and live in harmony, but that seems less and less likely.

So the question I have is, does anybody want to provide a home for two wonderful cats? I'd prefer to be able to give them to someone I know and trust before searching for a stranger. They are both completely up-to-date on shots and got clean bills of health just a month or two ago. They're fixed and have been tested for feline leukemia. They also come with a wide array of supplies, including toys, scratching posts, litter box, food dishes. We're talking a package deal here.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the kitties, they are Max and Frankie. Brother and sister, nearly 3 years old. I got them from a rescue organization in LA about two and a half years ago. They're probably two of the most affectionate cats ever. Max is a complete attention whore and Frankie, though a little shy at first, will curl up on your lap if you sit on the couch. It kills me to have to give them up, but unfortunately I don't really have a choice.

If anyone is interested, or knows someone who might be, send me an email and let me know.
