My recent fostering experience.

I recently fostered Miss Grayson for 2 1/2 weeks (see photo of grey female kitten below). She was about 12 weeks and had been desexed and had been in our intake centre for over a month. This means she was in a crate and although she was getting cuddles and her crate cleaned twice daily from the volunteers cleaners, it is not the same as having one on one love and care and freedom in a room of her own, before she get adopted to her forever home. She was adopted last Tuesday and I have now had updates from her owners and she is being showered with love and affection and has two feline siblings.

Due to the inn being so full, I thought I would help again, so on the following Wednesday, I picked up two black 6 week old kittens (both undesexed) named Bonnie and Buster. They are adorable and providing me with lots of distraction and entertainment during this sad time in Christchurch. I will have them until they are of the correct weight and can be desexed and put up for adoption on trademe, which maybe 2-3 weeks.

If you have a spare room, lots of love to give please go and apply on the link above and register to be a fosterer. Someone will ring you up and have a phone interview with you and the process will begin there.
If you have filled out the form and no one has gotten back to you and you still can foster, please pm this page and I will go into our volunteer data and check that the information has gotten through and will prompt someone to give you a ring.

We have more kittens coming into intake daily and are running out of room. We need your help to help them.
