I began fostering for SCRF in May of 2022. My first two were Edgar and Louie, a duo that had been abandoned inside a home when their owner went to hospice, and a concerned neighbor called to report them. I had no idea what I was doing—we had cats in the house growing up but this was my first time caring for another living being on my own. The ladies at SCRF were super helpful and always available for my questions. I knew after a couple of days that these boys were staying with me forever. Seeing them open up and start to trust me after what they’d been through was so cool.
Next came Solana in August. Not only was she terrified of me, but her eyes were all crusty and her hair was falling out in clumps when she first arrived. With lots of time and patience, she eventually came around. I adopted her too, and now she’s a beautiful little lap cat.
I’ve had about 12 fosters through SCRF. At first I thought I’d never be able to give any of them up, but when you see how much time and care goes into choosing adopters, it really eases your mind and makes it easier to let them go. I keep in touch with most of the families and they send me pictures and updates. It’s really rewarding to know you were a stepping stone to giving a struggling cat a chance at the good life, and all you had to do was give them a safe space to hang out for a little while.
