That is the question...
After reading about the absolutely amazing work many of you do with fosters
, I've started getting this strong desire to pitch in and do my share.
However, not only have I NEVER fostered before, but Evie is my very first cat! Can anyone tell me if I should maybe not try it, seeing as how I have probably the least amount of experience possible? I think my dog would make a better kitty foster meowmy than me!
If it's still something you all think I can consider, can anyone give me an idea what I'd be getting myself in to? There are tons of shelters around here I've already looked in to, and know I can get more info from, just before I get their hopes up, I want to speak to the all-knowing TCS members!
Honestly, I'm mainly interested in the cons to fostering, since the shelters are already happily sharing the pros! Any concerns I might have with Evie- not getting along, or maybe bonding too quickly and being heartbroken when they leave?
Anyway, I wasn't going to post at all tonight, it's so late! TCS is just too addicting!
So I'm off to bed now, but look forwarding to reading your words of wisdom in the morning! And I did try to search for this topic. I didn't see any threads, but I am way more asleep than awake, so I apologize if this is answered somewhere else!
Happy Easter all!!!
PS- I couldn't decide to put this under the care or rescue section, or here. If it's better elsewhere, could a mod please move it? Much obliged! Thanks!
