Fostering is very rewarding, mostly great fun and you can play with and enjoy kittens without them wrecking your house, breaking your ornaments and killing your plants…! Or if your passion is hunky males or pretty cuddly teddies, some quite angry, some very scared …all ages, shapes, sizes, temperaments come our way.
However, there is also an element of hard work with lots of scrubbing and poo-clearing as well as occasional sadness when we have to PTS on health grounds, although this is rare, it does happen.
If you think you may be able to help please read the points below, and then contact us if you would like to discuss in more detail.
