Hi,
I am fostering a 1 1/2 year old female stray cat for the local humane society (she had cat herpes but is doing great now). I have the option to adopt her - she is a real love bug - but I live in a four bedroom apartment and as I she is very playful, and needs a lot of attention, I feel terrible to leave her all day (quite demonstrative when I come back), and also guilty to think she will not know anything else than an apartment for the rest of her life (I don't intend to move). Also, the problem of cat sitting is another one... Is it a good solution to have the cat fostered in a cat pension while on holiday? It is difficult for me to have someone come here to feed her when I will go on vacation, for many reasons. If I put the cat in a pension for that time, will she have trouble adapting, especially one day when she is old?
I am really caught up in a real dilemna, as I like this cat a lot. Thank you in advance for your reply!
