Have you contacted Cat's Haven?

Perhaps they could help you find a home for this girl, but you could keep her until they do.
I didn't even know that existed. I'm glad to know that it does, but my problem is this (and this is where my husband and I might end up differing): Itty Bitty's situation right now in our home (and our situation with her) isn't ideal, but it's arguably loads better than even a no-kill shelter. She's safe, and she gets sufficient time to run around and play most days. She, in turn, provides us with love and affection. She's a sweet cat, if a wee bit energetic. I don't know how I'd feel surrendering her to anything but a permanent and appropriate home. I'd rather leave space in a shelter like that for cats who really have no place else to go.

So, we'll see. I haven't given up hope completely that we'll be able to integrate her into our home eventually. Everyone I've talked to has counseled patience.....
