Too bad you don't live closer you could have mine! She keeps getting 'threads, fringe' etc in her throat cuz she chews on my pillows, thread if she sneaks into my sewing room which I keep closed, and throw blankets. Kitty is our 2nd Tonk, our first was the very best cat we've had in 30 yrs of owning cats. Unfortunately my dd took her when she moved and didn't listen to us about keeping her in the house, she let her out and a coyote got her, I was livid, poor kitty.
there is a website, I think it is something like 'rescue me' where you can put what kind of cat or dog you are looking for and they will send you an email when the breed comes up for adoption.
