There is no available housing due to the housing crisis with 84,000 families and individuals waiting for a home in West Yorkshire alone. There is also no housing in Herefordshire where my family are based. If I wait until I am physically evicted and go into emergency accommodation I will lose my cats, most of my belongings and my job will be at risk.
There is another way. There is accommodation I can use in Spain and I can live and work there with my cats on a digital nomad visa. I spent all my cash reserves moving 12 months ago and I need £2,500 to cover transport, vets fees and other move costs.
Yes, it will be easier (although still costly) to find a private rental (which are all "no pets") if I rehome the cats, but I live alone and they are very important for my mental wellbeing.
My costs will be much lower after the move and I will rebuild my savings. Then I can gift you back or "pay it forward".
