PITA neighbor's wife stopped over to pay for oil change. I guess he isn't doing well. I wish him no harm and I hope he gets better. I just dislike nosy,prejudice people.

The cats on the website are all ready for adoption, therefore not eligible for
fostering. Fosters are those brought in (for various reasons) that are not
deemed as immediately adoptable. They could need behaviour modification,
they may be sick and need (at-home) medical attention, etc. Once any
available for adoption... unless the foster parent decides to keep the pet.
While fostering, all costs and supplies are covered in full. Caveat (for me) is
all check-ups or non-at-home medical things MUST be done THERE... and it
is NO quick jaunt. eg: 45 minutes TO there and 55 minutes BACK today.
It "could be" multiple times per week.
The person I spoke with has apparently heard it all before and she said fostering
is not for "test runs".
Guess I was a tad transparent. She also said thatany cat ready for adoption will REMAIN for adoption for as long as it takes.
None are put down after x number of days.
blah blah blah ... and found that the two 14 year-olds are on a very restricted
"kidney health" diet. Which takes me back to a previous post about how do
you separate THEM from Ty-Grr re: food ALL day long? Not to mention one
of them gave my finger a really good bite... (and I was SUPPOSED to report
it ... nope)... but I laid it to the very hectic and busy environment. All of
the cats and kittens seemed stressed, to me. I got a couple pics of them,
may post later.
well, i guess it depends on the rescue quite a few around here deem the older pets as not adoptable and are grateful for fosters.
for example, the boy and dil took in gramps last year as what the rescue called a sanctuary dog. they provided a home and care for this little fellow till he died a few months later
Sanctuary Hounds
they are now fostering a dachshund just out of back surgery. that rescue does exceptional work - there's got to be something similar for cats in your neighborhood!

void in the household. Gives us the chance to learn.
One thing I will be passing along to them is this... Details on the website NEED to be
synchronized with details found on paperwork attached to the animals' enclosures.
Example... The two 14+ year-old cats... the website does NOT mention their
kidney-health diet requirement, but you WOULD find that out if you went there.
By contrast, "Sassy" at the adoption center had no mention of preference to be an
"only household cat" on cage paperwork... but it IS mentioned on the website.
It's not fair to folks looking to adopt. And I do understand that just about EVERYTHING
is handled by non-paid volunteers.
(This is not going to be an easy task.)
