Another foster gone in the morning

[spinbaby]

Our little calico girl is off to her new home in the morning. Back in June, she was a tiny hissy feral kitten with ear mites and smelly digestive issues. In two months, I’ve turned her into a lovable (and somewhat spoiled), healthy, spayed older kitten all ready for a new home. It’s rewarding work, but it’s so hard to let go. I have one little boy left and I think I’ll keep him.

Several dogs in our days.

Good luck kitties!

3. We have 2 rescue pits of our own and due to the covoid crisis, we have taken TWO fosters.

The newest is a 5lb chihuahua. The cat is happy to have a playmate her own size. The longer they stay, the harder it is getting over it. But we know its for a good cause and if you don't let one go, you can't help the next one.

4. My one foster attempt didn't work out

Over the years we've taken in and tamed several feral kittens that we kept. They turned from hissing furballs to friendly, companionable house cats.

The last stray kitten I took in off the street was supposed to be a foster. My wife had said "Enough!" and I promised we would only keep this one long enough to get her ready for adoption. Such a cute black-and-white cat, no problem finding a home for her!

Unfortunately, she turned out to be too cranky to put up for adoption. So now we've got yet another cat (much to my wife's dismay) who isn't a particularly nice cat and is quick to scratch or bite if she is displeased.

5. Thank you for fostering

I have a friend who fosters dogs and we meet with my pup for playtime. I fall in love with each and every one of them and miss them after they’re adopted, I don’t know how she does it. I mean, actually, I do. Because each one that goes make a space to save another one.

It’s a wonderful thing to do and those who do it have my everlasting admiration
