DOES ANYONE FOSTER CATS?????

I foster 고양이 with my mom and I was wondering if anyone else fostered 고양이 too? 또는 if anyone else even know what fostering 고양이 is?!

Yes. When I lived in the Florida Keys I used to foster cats. The Keys, being an island chain, have a HUGE population of feral 고양이 and it has swamped local shelters (they had to convert the dog area into 더 많이 cat cages just to make room) they depend on local volunteers to foster 'adoptable' feral 고양이 until a 집 is found.

The cat in the picture is named Lucky. He was my favorite. He was the sweetest most lovable animal 당신 would have ever come across. However not all of them are as sweet (being previously wild and all) I got bit horribly 의해 one I fostered while pouring his water, he came out of nowhere and sunk his teeth into my wrist and shook his head opening the wound. Had to go to the hospital for that one. So before 당신 jump into foster consider the risks. 당신 may not always get a 'Lucky' some of them have severe emotional trauma.

No, we don't have the 우주 for to many 고양이 또는 the money to take care of them. But, I really respect ones that do and I wish I could. Maybe one 일 I will be able to.

Yes! There are many formal cat fostering services around the world. There are also many Unsung 히어로즈 and Heroines of Cat Fostering - individuals and families who take in unwanted 고양이 and give them a home.

My family is one of those families. We have 28 adopted 고양이 - most 'just appeared' in our garden. One we adopted from a drain outside a bakery shop. Her mother had been killed 의해 local thugs and as a memorial to her, we brought her kitten to live with our other cats. And a medal to the bakery 샵 (Brumbies - an Australian firm) whose staff left bits of 베이컨 (etc) outside for this cat and her mother to live on.

We have a website and on it we have some newspaper (etc) 기사 about other people who foster cats. There's a lady who cares for the 'stray' 고양이 who live in the Protestant cemetary in Rome. There's another lady who runs a sanctuary/shelter called 'Cat House on Kings (River)' who cares for 더 많이 than 800 otherwise unwanted/stray cats! Also there's a man who runs a similar establishment he calls 'Caboddle Ranch'. Go to our site (it's free!) to read their stories: link.

Also, please sign our (draft) petition - we want local councils everywhere to be 더 많이 open to cat (and other animal) fostering.

I want too in the worst way, but out last cat died about two weeks 이전 and my mom does not even want to think about getting/fostering a cat. We couldn't foster when he was around because he HATED other animals. He was 22, so we didn't even want to try it yet.
