Hey all, I'm that relative normie up in Duluth, Minnesota, who took in Keris a year and a half ago, and I need help finding a new and safer place for them to go.

First and foremost, this is not a plea for money, and if anyone has such offers they should go directly to Keris.

Bluntly, my wife is done with us having a houseguest, which is totally understandable, so I don't want to point fingers but make it understood that we aren't fishing for cash.

So on to Keris. They're non-binary, in their 30s, and mostly keep to themselves. I like hanging out with them, as nerds we get along. They're clean, quiet, considerate, and basically just need a safe place with their own room and preferably bathroom. Cat friendly is a massive plus.

I'm looking for ideas and offers of help. They do not have a job and do have some Minnesota state benefits, but not much money saved. I'll answer any other questions in comments or privately.

Personally, I think getting them out of the country is best, and would be able to get them to Canada if that's of any help. But stateside offers of help are also appreciated.

One me, free to a good home 🥺

Mysterious snack disappearances may occur. Cats will be befriended and petted and given treats and played with.

Have you tried asking the blahaj chat? Might have more luck there. Unfortunately I don't think the mutual housing chat is still operating, but you could always check

Thanks for the tip, I'll talk with Keris and check it out.
