No, you are NOT too fussy!!  The right home will come along.  I think maybe
the newspaper isn't the best place to advertise.  Can you get them into a
rescue, and make an arrangement that you will foster them?  That way, they
can send you pre-screened applicants for the kittens.

I don't think you're too fussy at all. It's all about their future safety.
You would be just as fussy if it were a child and there is nothing wrong
with that.

Good luck

PS They asked us at the shelter we got Delilah and Stella at if they were
going to be outdoor cats or not and were very happy and relieved when we
said no.

No. :-)

 Hi Aimee,
It's up to you to decide what you are happy with and to chose the
home you feel right for the cat so it's worth waiting.
However, the woman who lets her cat out for an hour; she is happy with
that and I expect the cat is, that doesn't make her a bad owner.  Yes,
a cat can get killed in five minutes, and many cats don't get killed
in five minutes outside.  It's safer indoors but not 100% safe.
If you choose a home where the cat stays inside permanently , you'll
have to make sure that the new owners understand what is needed to
keep a cat happy and contented  indoors. Keeping a cat indoors doesn't
automatically make someone a good and knowledgable cat owner.

No, I don't think you're too fussy. You want the best homes for the kittens
you love. That's being responsible, not fussy.  ;)

You mentioned you live in a rural area. I am usually very anti-letting-cats-
out, but I live in a suburb with lots of traffic, dogs, and other hazards. If
I lived in a rural area where I could have a securely fenced yard, I'd
probably let my cats go out, too. Assuming I could contain them in my yard.
Are these people talking about letting the cats roam at will, or letting them
sit on the back porch?
We let our cats out in our yard all the time when I was a kid, but they never
left the yard. They were fine and very happy for being able to get out and
smell the flowers. Lazy little buggers didn't do much else but smell flowers
most of the time. *g*
My aunt's cats lived to be over 20 and they also went out. But never far.
Just in the big field behind her house. You have to weigh the dangers in your
area. Some rural areas have a lot of natural predators, so it's just never
safe for cats. Others don't, and cats live long, healthy, happy lives being
able to go out for a little while each day. Only you know your area enough to
make that decision.

Don't forget to ask applicants how they feel about declawing if you're
against it. Indoor-only cats need lots of stuff to claw and play on to be
happy and not kill the furniture. The adopters must understand that.

Good luck with the babies!
