Cat Sitter Wanted

Hello

We are a couple from the UK currently traveling in the States on a boat with a cat. We are planning on taking the boat out in Lake Champlain and were thinking about flying home for the winter. The only problem being that we have a lovely little cat that we can't take back with us and would like to find a responsible reliable person to look after him whilst we are away.

Does anybody know of such a person??? And how we an check someones credentials if we do find someone.

Here is a link to our sailing website that contains many pictures of Mano in action!

Mano himself is 2 years old, white and ginger and looks a little siamese. We have had him living on the boat with us since he was 4 months old, although like most cats he loves getting off the boat when he can and having a good old explore around. He has been neutered, has up to date rabies injections and has a health certificate. Although we would like to get him chiped too whilst we are in Canada to get him a Pet Passport, so we can eventually sail home with him.

If anyone has any information we would be extremely greatful!
