As my email address indicates (FelineFosterMom@yahoo.com), I do foster work for our local SPCA by taking in expecting mamas and giving them a safe, secure, and loving home throughout their pregnancy, through delivery and then raising the kittens. Each experience is very rewarding. Do I cry when I have to separate mama from babies and then when the babies are ready to go to the shelter? YOU BET I DO! Then I do it again, and again, and again. Your story had me blubbering from the start because I know exactly how you feel.Karrinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8265840800445269059.post-65055173238697026972011-05-19T08:31:15.272-05:002011-05-19T08:31:15.272-05:00Wow!

It was a great experience and one that I will definitely do again. I keep telling myself I loved them as best I could for the start of their life and now they will find their forever homes and bring as much love there as they brought to our home. I do miss them running to meet me when I walk in the door but they will bring someone else that joy soon! <br />Thank you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8265840800445269059.post-45971544195194835422011-05-16T10:22:14.035-05:002011-05-16T10:22:14.035-05:00I think that what you are doing and the lessons it...I think that what you are doing and the lessons it teaches your children is an incredibly generous and wonderful deed. I know that I just couldn't do this myself because I would bond too much with the kittens.
