        I’ve been following the “diary” of the sweetest little kitten at the local humane society on facebook (http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/note.php?note_id=128116414532&ref=mf don’t know if that will work or not but…).  And when I saw mention of them needing foster homes for kittens I thought you know I think this would be a good time to finally send in the foster application!  I had thought about volunteering there but I just don’t think I could do that, but some how fostering an animal and helping them get prepared for adoption seems different.

         

        So I faxed in the application on Thursday, and today I had a call saying that I was approved pending the reference check!  In theory I could pick up a foster kitten as early as tomorrow, but more likely on Tuesday.  Now I’m all nervous waiting to hear on final approval!!

              Oh dear. I absolutely could not foster a kitten without wanting to keep it. I am more helpless with the gaze of a cute kitten almost than I am with bunnies. >.< But it sounds like total fun though. Be ready to watch where your feet go even more so than you do now! ^_^

                I told them I was quite happy to foster bunnies too, since we’ve got some experience with them.    I’m a huge cat person though – I grew up with cats and they seem to like me.  The cats we have that we got at kittens are super snuggly as adults, I think because I make sure to spend lots of quiet snuggly time with them as kittens.  I know what you mean about wanting to keep them all, in the back of my mind I’m still wondering I’m going to end up being that crazy 87 year old cat lady with 56 cats roaming through the house, lol.    But it helps a bit that we have a bylaw here limiting the number of cats and dogs per household to 3, so at least I can say man I’d love to keep this little sweetie but I’m already at my limit.

                Still waiting for the final call, which at this point I’m guessing isn’t going to come until Tuesday!

                    That is so wonderful that you are going to foster!! I commend you as we definitely need more people with open hearts and doors to welcome in those animals. I just think that if they could tell you how they are feeling when they get to go to your home they would say “Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!” Good luck with the new little fur ball when it arrives!!!

                      That’s wonderful news!!! The shelters really need help right now with the recession-they are getting more surrenders and less donations. This is the best time to help out!! I’m so excited for you!

                      Now repeat after me: “I will not keep my foster pets. I will not keep my foster pets” LOL

                              lol! I’m still waiting for the call on final approval. I’m guessing they were either busy or closed for the long weekend, and she had originally mentioned Tuesday until I tried to swing her towards Sunday. If I haven’t heard from her by noon then I’ll give her a call and see what’s going on. I’ve got some errands I have to take care of this morning and I’m planning on tossing the carrier in the trunk just in case I need it
