The Joys and Responsibilities of Fostering Cats
Fostering cats is an incredibly rewarding experience. These furry companions offer unconditional love in exchange for a safe place to stay, food, water, a litter box, and some toys. However, be warned: you might experience a “foster failure” when a kitty captures your heart so completely that you can’t bear to part with them!
What to Expect when Fostering Kitties
- Commitment Duration: Be prepared to care for the kitties until they find their forever homes. This period can range from a few weeks to several months, depending on the cat’s age and the interest from potential adopters.
- Transportation: You will need to provide transportation for the kitties to the Studio for their FVRCP vaccinations and surgeries. This is a crucial part of their care and helps ensure they stay healthy and ready for adoption.
- Medical Care: All medical appointments are scheduled and covered by Feline Friends. This ensures that the kitties receive the necessary vaccinations, check-ups, and any required treatments without any financial burden on you.
