@BonnyinBrighton, sorry to hear about your neighbour’s cat.
While your stated search results do not inspire joy then hopefully you were simply unlucky. Suggest try again in a week or two. Maybe results will be better. Keep smiling 
Given some learning experiences then we - seemingly like you - have increasingly clear tolerances when reading listings. We search selectively. Sometimes we get excited and leap for the apply button. Sometimes we apply with targeted reservations, with intent to clarify specifics. Often we quickly discard, as the listing does not meet our specific criteria and preferences. And sometimes we run away as the listing is plain nonsense or expectations unreasonable.
