    They are all lovely! I used to foster but am just too busy at the mo and my own 4 cats miss out as a result so I've had to stop this year. My dog is very kitten friendly so gets to spend time with foster babies but obviously my adult cats have to be kept separate. I wasn't ever that tempted to adopt any of the kittens I've fostered though - they are lovely & highly entertaining but it's very rewarding seeing them get new homes. Pretty sure I'd fail at fostering dogs though, so not doing that until I'm in a position to keep one if I did :)

    Beautiful kitties. You are great to foster. I couldn't do it - mainly because my old ladies (rescues) wouldn't like it so it wouldn't be fair on them - they like the house and garden to themselves!

    Aww they are just gorgeous. I'd be no good fostering, I'd fall in love and keep them all . Good on you!

    All babies gone and so is the mum. Had another 3 for few days and they also gone now. Miss them all...

    Just stare a new job (today) so can not do it at the moment.

    Unfortunately one of my cats, Fred, started attacking all my 3 other boys at home since the fosters arrived so do not think I could do more anyway.

    Pity as really enjoyed having them here but Fred is absolutely vicious now , very unsettled. I just hope he calms back down :(

    I am so sorry to hear about Fred GR.
    I also had to stop fostering after the last litter outstayed their welcome due to illness and my boys decided to start peeing in the house in protest.
    I hope Fred soon calms down for you and that you are enjoying your new job.
