Special Foster Needed for Two Sweet, Grieving Cats
Three things happened in August of 2016: a tiger kitten was saved 2 hours before being euthanized; a kind soul found a kitten in a park trash can and brought him to Cindy at Clinton Co Animal Control who called us; and a woman with a big heart asked us to recommend two kittens who would get along, and she would adopt them. And, she did adopt them.
For almost 10 years, these three amigos lived happily together. Then, last week, their mom passed away unexpectedly. Ollie, the tiger cat and the more outgoing of the pair, allows the humans to comfort him but is sad. Harvey, the orange one who has always been shy, has been hiding because he is still coming to terms with the fact that his mom won’t be coming back.
The Kitten Nursery makes a lifetime commitment to our cats. If they lose their human and need a safe place to land, they come back to us. For this pair, we would really like to have a foster home who will be able to let them decompress in a quiet space, watch to make sure they are eating and drinking, and give them love on their terms and timeframe. We could also do a trial adoption. We cover food, litter, and veterinary care. We can give tips on working with cats in this situation. If you have a spare bedroom or home office or other enclosed space and want to be a kitty hero, please contact us.
