Gladys is correct that this is hands-down the worst time to take a cat to a shelter or rescue. We are all packed completely full, and most no-kill rescues and shelters are turning away many animals and/or maintaining a waitlist. We currently have about a 1-2 month waitlist for City Kitties' small network of foster homes.

Re: the litterbox issues, do you have one or more? The magic number is N + 1, where N is the number of cats you have. Adding boxes solves many problems. I strongly recommend trying the other tips in this litterbox behavior guide.

And if you're interested in finding homes for them, here's a guide for that, which includes info on how to screen adopters and a sample adoption application and contract you can use. It's geared towards finding homes for stray cats but can just as easily be used to re-home your own cat.

Best of luck.
