Said I'd Foster Them for 3 Days

Said I'd foster two kittens for "just three days" while the shelter found them homes. That was eight months ago. Now I'm the crazy cat person I swore I'd never become. My bank account weeps from vet bills and premium food. My furniture looks like it survived a tiny tornado. I wake up with a furry paw in my face every morning. But watching them grow from scared, tiny fluffballs into confident, mischievous troublemakers? Worth every shredded curtain. The way they comfort me after bad days, or how they play-fight then immediately cuddle together? I used to judge people who "failed" at fostering. Turns out I'm not immune to those big kitten eyes and tiny purrs. My foster failure is complete, and honestly? Best mistake I ever made. Pro tip: Don't foster unless you're prepared to gain permanent roommates. #Pets #Cats #FosterFail

Being a crazy cat person is the best thing to be in the world. They brighten our days in so many ways and I’m very Leary of anyone who doesn’t love cats. These are my last two foster failures! Tucker and Sullivan. ❤️🐈🐈‍⬛❤️

I had 3 cats in a box put at my front door. A male and 2 pregnant females. I was going to keep the adults, they’re harder to get adopted and my resident cat accepted them, and the local rescue would take the kittens. I’m struggling with that now.

After 8 cats next door were abandoned they took up residence in my barn. of course i fed them. and they invited two friends one about to deliver. now i have 14. i tried to make one a pet but he begged to ne with the colony. no cuddles. but a lot of sass. its expensive but it way it is. worth it to me. i also have 2 geese 5 guinneas 27 chickens that give me joy.

I could never foster, I would want to keep the cats, if they did get homes I would always wonder if they were ok

I just helped a momnaccst raise 6 babies. I called my babies little bandits. I got mom fixed kept her and took babies to the humane society that's how I rescue, I have to psy to take them there but I know they are safe and will get adopted. I just got my automatic liter box. I sure wish I would of had that with those babies

Hey y'all that JAKEHEALTH1 trolls around to all the cat reels, videos, any story and says the same ugly thing, word for word. I'm want to say something to him every time I see his name, but I just can't make myself say it because it would be way too ugly. He's just an ugly, miserable, mean, lonesome and hateful person. JAKEHEALTH1, please find another hobby and stay out of ours, please.

yes, you got it all right, from the shredded curtains to the joy they bring.

look this little one .at first I didn't want to keep it. my boyfriend came one night with a box with three kittens inside. and when I see them I was so mat with him , because we already have one cat. so I didn't know what to do with four cats in a place so small. but them I didn't have the heart to put them out side , so I end up keeping them. this one is the younger ones. I was so lucky to find good parents for the other two. then I keep the little one then I named him Orbit and I fell. in love with him. his like my baby. 😀 Look at him his so adorable and his very smart. in this picture he was sitting at my table waiting for his food 😀😀😀♥️♥️♥️ cats are adorable , I get mad sometimes because he too much. but when I see his shiny little eyes I forget everything that he does ahahaha😂😂😂😂😂😂
