I moved into my rented property october last year and from day one saw a large white cat hanging around who we though was a tom, anyway a few months ago it turned out sh was female and gave birth to a litter in our landlords shed in the garden, the cats protection got involved and took the kittens and spayed mum but rereleased her in our garden thinking she'll just wander off to wherever she came from but this isn't the case, we have since discovered she is deaf (CPL missed that one!) and she wont leave our garden fast forward 3 months and she is a complete nightmare she terrorizes my two cats and will attack my puppy as soon as he is let into the garden, if you try and move her she will scratch to get to whatever animal is close, however on her own she is really affectionate so isn't feral.

I have called the CPL several times asking for them to remove her but they refuse as they are full as are every rescue in my area, believe me I have tried, it is getting to the point where I am considering taking her to get put to sleep.

I have tried posting ads for a home for her as an only pet but have had no interest, I really have no ideas left (I can't just dump her somewhere) but surely given the circumstances the CPL should take her seeing as they had no problems taking the kittens AIBU?

Valhalla Thank you for the update, glad she seems to be settling well, my own cats came bounding straight into the house when I got home so they also seem to be happy bless em.
I think DomesticGOddess hit the nail on the head that there isn't enough volenteers to go around, although like I have said previously, they took the kittens with no problem. They literally had mum spayed and released back into my garden later the same day and I have been fighting to get her a rescue place since.
I'm very glad there are people like Valhalla out there who do care and do the best they can to get animals into homes.

Yes, kittens are so easy to home compared to an adult cat who could literally wait years for a home Sad. Glad your cats are happy now too!
