My recent fostering experience.
I recently fostered Miss Grayson for 2 1/2 weeks (see photo of grey female kitten below). She was about 12 weeks and had been desexed and had been in our intake centre for over a month. This means she was in a crate and although she was getting cuddles and her crate cleaned twice daily from the volunteers cleaners, it is not the same as having one on one love and care and freedom in a room of her own, before she get adopted to her forever home. She was adopted last Tuesday and I have now had updates from her owners and she is being showered with love and affection and has two feline siblings.
Due to the inn being so full, I thought I would help again, so on the following Wednesday, I picked up two black 6 week old kittens (both undesexed) named Bonnie and Buster. They are adorable and providing me with lots of distraction and entertainment during this sad time in Christchurch. I will have them until they are of the correct weight and can be desexed and put up for adoption on trademe, which maybe 2-3 weeks.
If you have a spare room, lots of love to give please go and apply on the link above and register to be a fosterer. Someone will ring you up and have a phone interview with you and the process will begin there.
If you have filled out the form and no one has gotten back to you and you still can foster, please pm this page and I will go into our volunteer data and check that the information has gotten through and will prompt someone to give you a ring.
We have more kittens coming into intake daily and are running out of room. We need your help to help them.

To ensure donations make it to the intended victims, please take the advice of CERT NZ, the government agency that oversees cybersecurity, and donate directly on registered charity or bank websites, rather than using links in emails or on social media.UPDATE Tuesday 10am:

Mayor Lianne Dalziel has spoken on the Council's Facebook page(external link) about the unfolding incidents in the city Here is a transcript of what she had to say:
I would never believe I would be standing in front of a camera and talking to the people of Christchurch about the shocking incident that has affected us all. We still have sketchy details about what has actually happened and I will certainly be trying to get messages out to people as soon as I have more information to give. The city remains in lock-down and it is important that if people are inside, they stay inside. Don’t venture out. This is still an active situation and Police are still doing everything they can to get the situation under control.
The schools are in lockdown – the children are at school and they are safe. We have all of our facilities in lock-down – we are not letting people in and we are not letting people out.
I think it is really important that people remain absolutely calm and feel free to talk to friends and family about the feelings that you will have. It’s natural. I could never believe that something like this would happen in the city of Christchurch, but actually I would never believe that this would happen in New Zealand. It looks as if simply the worst has happened. We need to pull together and get through this situation.
I do apologise to those who are deaf. I would have somebody who signs standing beside me but because of the lock-down I cannot get anyone into the building to support me. We will get a transcript of this up as soon as we possibly can.
Please send a message to any family or friends and pass it on that we are to keep ourselves safe under the circumstances and as soon as we know any different we will let you know what is going on. There is a lot of speculation happening right now and all we can do is trust the Police to do what they do best and to support them in the directions they have given us.
Thank you for your time. I’m really sorry to be saying this to you today.
