Why I foster kittens

I loveeee fostering little kittens from a couple days old being bottle fed, to adult cats!

Here are the pros to fostering:

🫶cute and cuddly

🫶 shelters are drowning in kittens every spring and need help!

🫶seeing their little personalities develop as they grow is so fun!

🫶if you raise a kitten and keep them they will be so loyal!

🫶 you could literally be saving their lives!!

... Read moreFostering kittens offers numerous benefits and is a rewarding experience for animal lovers. As shelters face an overwhelming influx of kittens during the spring months, fostering provides crucial support to help save lives. Each kitten has a unique personality that emerges over time, making it joyful to witness their growth and development. Furthermore, fostering allows you to create lasting bonds with these adorable creatures, often leading to permanent adoptions that change their lives forever. By opening your heart and home, you not only provide a safe haven for these vulnerable animals but also contribute to the larger community by reducing overcrowding in shelters. If you're considering fostering, remember the commitment it entails, including the time and energy needed to nurture these young felines. However, the joy and satisfaction of seeing a once-timid kitten thrive into a loving companion is immeasurable. Embrace the chance to make a difference, and perhaps even find your new furry friend along the way!

A man with a beard looks down at a black and white cat, which gazes up at him. The image text reads, "Missing my foster beauties today."
A man with a beard holds a light-colored cat close to his face, appearing to nuzzle it affectionately. The cat is nestled in his arms.
A man with a beard looks at the camera while a calico cat sits in front of him, also looking towards the camera. Both appear to be posing together.

My son brought foster kitten Jelly downstairs to show me a little lump on her belly. We took the opportunity to see how she’d do with our dog Ruthie. It’s always good to know how they do with dogs so the shelter can help find a suitable home. Most are nervous at a first intro but this was a very cl
