Temporary fosters required!

Calling all cat lovers!!

We are over flowing with cats & kittens in our care atm & I can't bare to see them having to stay in crates any long than necessary,

Do you have a spare room or a pet free home for them to roam?

All our kittys have various backgrounds & story's,

lost, friendly cats needing a secure, loving environment to be while we search for their family's to reunite then with

Abandoned or dumped - scared of people for many various reasons, but have once b4 been around people so just needing time & patience for them to go at their own pace about building trust for people again

Wild born kittens, these guys are starting from scratch with many milestones to still achieve, they can require alot more attention, like learning to just be normal happy playful trusting kittens, often suited well with family's with teens that are willing to take it slow but put their time into being consistent with them.

Perfectly socialised kittens requiring seperation whilst awaiting desexing appointments b4 put up for forever home adoptions,

All of these kittys will need to strictly stay indoors during there stay in your home, your own pets are OK, will just need a quiet private room closed off from other animals during their stay with you, kids OK, so long as they are supervised at all times around the kittys & old enough to understand & appreciate alot of these kittys are scared & have yet to recognise the love & care Us humans can show them so super important to not cause any undue stress & also to avoid any unnecessary injuries.
I'm available 24/7 for advice & questions & introduction involves through training as to whats required for each individual situation.

Please get in touch ASAP if you would like to give it a try, short term, long term, even sometimes just very briefly. We need your help!

Right now we have 2 kittys requiring urgent placements to get them out of crate situations,

1 is a newly caught cat from the Jville /tawa colony I'm working with, very shy very scared, requiring time & space to stretch her legs & allow her to settle into indoor life with food no longer having to be hunted & faught for. So far, very calm, will still have crate to help her feel safe & secure at this stage but be able to be open into a room to move when she felt comfortable to.. Spending time in the same room just going about your own thing is best at first for her to get used to your presence & to see we are no cause for fear for them, she may trust quickly, she may not, it's hard to predict however given its only day 1 in my care, I can already unzip soft crate she's in & put my hand in without being attacked or her trying to escape me. Have given a chin scratch with gloves incase & only showed a bit of fear to be expected but no aggression so far towards me.. Video below.

& we have Bear, Bear is our fluffy 5 month old burmilla /ragdoll x kitten, bear is booked in for desexing on the 2nd of August & once recovered will be up for forever home adoption. Unfortunately for bear, we have many female cats & kittens in our care atm & he is the only Male that's not yet desexed so sadly he's unable to continue to roam free with all the others at this stage as we don't need any extra pregnancy's!!

Bear is a lil shy but loves attention at the same time. We strongly believe that he is really gonna shine once away from all the other kittys here with a bit more 1 on 1 attention. He is litter trained & still a playful kitten so a lil time in your day for kitten play aswell as cuddles is required to keep bear happy & confident for a few weeks b4 ready for adoption. Vid below of shy bear also.

"If you're looking for a super sweet pup, with a kind personality, I am your girl! I am coming out of my shell with each day though I still have a journey ahead of me.
I am looking for a home with another dog that can help me grow and provide me with some support when life is scary. I have come so far since first arriving at SPCA and can't wait to continue learning more about the world in my home, my community and through training school. I am not the largest sibling in my litter though I will be medium to large once fully grown. All the more to love!
Being a young puppy I do require a home with someone around for parts of the day, this will help build my confidence around people, ensure I get lunch and help with general training."

Some are very shy n timid, some are crazy full on young kittens, your own pets OK as the Foster cats will require being in a secure room away from your own fur family, for the duration of their stay. Having well behaved kids that can respect they also need their alone quiet times aswell as playtime can be a bonus for the younger ones requiring care. Please get in touch ASAP to discuss furthur, tonight I am in urgent need of a spare room at the least for an amazing found cat that's super friendly who needs to get out of create currently having to be in while awaits us to find his family. Super snuggly n loving, just needs somewhere to stretch his legs n have some loving while he waits.

If you think you or someone you may know will be great for this, please get in touch with me ASAP :)
