Must be very hard random because you are big-hearted but at least you can still be Bear's auntie.

Re: Update Kits...


You have to look on it as, you have given them a good start, got them used to all the things they were frightebned of, like the vac etc, and know they are going to a lovely home where they will be spoilt...Done my bit, now someone will love them for the rest of their lives......
I did dog rescue years ago, and learned then you cannot keep them all!!

Re: Update Kits...


I am pleased all well with the wee guy.

I echo all said about fostering. I would love to do it. |We have the space and always someone around. I just know however I am too soft hearted and would never be able to let them go.

Am thinking about contacting CP in Autumn tho' to offer perm home in our massive barn for 2 or 3 rescued ferals. (who could become indoor/outdoor cats if they wanted)

Re: Update Kits...


I could never do it either; would end up keeping them! My hat's off to those who can do it, though.

Re: Update Kits...


I've done handrearing and fostering in the past and it its so so hard to let them go I would have loved to have kept them all but as you say Moli, they all deserved their own special home and you just can't keep them all! It is especially hard when you've been up every 2 hours through the night, before their eyes are even open, you form such a bond with them.
Glad Dutch has found his appetite again now though!
