... a question
I always thought it would be amazing to be with a mom kitty while shes pregnant.. and then to witness the birth.. and then see the babies grow. But at the same time, I'm not crazy enough to irresponsibly breed cats. (All mine are spayed/neutered, so don't worry
)
So I was thinking it might be an awesome experience to foster a mom kitty at some point in my life. A lot of work too I'm sure... but something I'd like to witness once. So I was wondering what you had to go through to foster a mom kitty? Do they expect you to have a certain knowledge - like, having experienced a kitten birth before? Do you just need to work with a rescue?
Basically I'm just trying to find out what I would need to do in order to foster a mom. I really don't know if this sounds crazy or not... I mean on one hand, I know adding to the kitten population is nutty... but I figure there are a lot of mom cats out there who need help, so helping one out who is already past the safe spay/abort time is a good way to experience a kitten birth without being irresponsible.. ya know?
Hm... anyway... thoughts on this?
