We foster kittens only (up to a year or so perhaps), we have our own adults and experience has shown more adults often causes stress and unhappiness. Other fosterers take adults only, for their own reasons. Do what you’re comfortable with, there’s never a shortage of cats to rescue round here and we just can’t help them all.

DrMags Nov 2023 8:48pm, 2 Nov 2023 159 posts	Quote Pin DrMags Big floofy Zach definitely has some Norwegian forest cat in him, SallyK. His glare contains some “really?!” as we’re often sneaking up on him to check his backside! No wonder he’s started waving his tail proudly 🤭 Ally-C, I’ve not been involved in getting him to the vet, and don’t know what they charge (an arm and a leg for sure in Norway), but believe getting him in the carrier is the biggest challenge. For a cat that clearly loves his food, he can’t be enticed with it!
