Pardon the off-topic post but I'm hoping people won't mind...

This was forwarded to me by a friend; if anyone's able to help, please let me know, and I'll connect you.

Please excuse the mass email. I'm desperate to find a new home for my 2 cats (see pictures). Many of you have met them and know that Jack is a handsome gray and white (tuxedo) cat who loves attention and Sophie is an extremely petite brown Maine Coon cat who makes friends with everybody she meets. My stepmom has been taking care of them for the last 5 years however is no longer able to to do because of her travel schedule. Unfortunately [name] is extremely allergic so we cannot take them from her and my immediate family is also unable to provide homes for them. My stepmom feels that they would not thrive in a shelter situation and that the only humane thing to do is euthanize them if we can't find good homes. (She's set the deadline at August 1 so this is very time sensitive).

I would be so grateful if each of you please forwarded this email to everyone and anyone you know who might be interested in taking either or both of them. The cats are currently in NYC but we are willing to bring them anywhere to a good home. My stepmom will provide all their stuff and any information to help care for them.

Again, please forgive me for reaching out so broadly with this urgent matter and thanks in advance for your help.
