I'm not sure where to post this, but can anybody give me some advice on how to turn someone down who wants my foster kitten, who may be perfectly fine people, but they don't have much of a vet history, one small dog-shots and boarded once, not at the same vet, I found out about the first vet because she gave me the second as a reference, but had only boarded there one time, recently. She said she has 3 other dogs, but neither vet has records on these, and said she had a cat, but disappeared (had that happen before, so can't really fault there). Said kitten would be indoors until grown, and then in and out, but husband said she said out when grown to him, but he wasn't sure if she was just adding it to the in
I don't mind if Gretta (the kitten) is an indoor/outdoor cat when she's grown, with her personality, she may need to be, but I just don't know.
I just don't feel comfortable giving Gretta to her and her 10 yr old daughter (but will feel bad for child), and also don't want to alienate her from my vet if she IS a good pet owner (my vet takes very good care of us
) So what do I tell her and how do I say it nicely? I figured I would tell her that I want Gretta to go to someone who has a longer vet history, and that I'm sorry and that they may try the humane society. Would this be okay?
