Granted, the shipping time is like three weeks from UK -> Western US, but mine should be showing up soon and I'm pretty excited
Sorry about your situation (and your dad sounds like a jerk), but you have to think of what's best for the animals in your care. If no one can or will pay for their medical expenses and the cats are advanced in age, it may be best to put them to sleep. Shelters will take them, but there's no guarantee they'll get adopted before they're put down. It sounds like your grandmother has Alzheimer's or dementia. If that's the case, then a realistic toy cat may be a good substitute for the real animals in keeping her calm.
I work in a retirement facility (ranges from people who are elderly and independent to those with dementia, stroke sufferers, etc.) and I've seen toys like these for people who probably had pets before they became ill.

Here's one, I don't know if it will be available wherever you are. But amazon have a bunch of them, just search dementia cat and a bunch come up. They aren't that cheap though, but they have a lot of functions. Joy For All Orange Tabby Cat https://smile.amazon.co.uk/dp/B017JQQ01A/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_38EsEb6G21MNR
Here is a link. The only listing at the moment is $75 tho, so you might want to wait awhile for a cheaper listing to show up...

I just got one on Amazon for $25, check everyday for it to be back in stock, they usually go out of stock within 3 days so be fast. There is the $75 and then another company that restocks here and there. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076DP5XTC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_F8R3Z0KZ8PH1KR1ZJH3T
In the US, I bought mine from Amazon. The vendor is out-of-stock at the moment:
Amazon.com: Rhode Island Novelty Jumbo 80 Inch Caterpillar, One Per Order: Toys & Games
This was recommended by Amazon as an alternate; not sure about the yes for a dog:
Amazon.com: Giant Caterpillar Plush, Caterpillar for Kids, 53" Long: Toys & Games
You need these. Based on the reviews, they'll clear you out in no time.
Thanks to another redditor on here for providing the link of where I can get one in the US.

There ya go! Ours loves hers. She tries to drag it around and it’s hilarious.
Update: I got the other two Nessies (the Pink and Small Green ones) but I can't get the Blue one that is Exclusive to Japan because I don't know any third party purchase websites that I can get the Blue Nessie that are trustworthy (If someone can direct me to one that is trustworthy and hopefully not a scam website that would be great)
You can order these Nessies (Reminder: The 10 inch is the one with the functional zipper, the 6 inch versions don't have a functional zipper and the zipper is just for a display effect) on Amazon Here

Walmart used to have Malcom on sale for $14.88 on their website. I checked and he is not online.
