So I chose to live tweet just a small snippet of a day in the life of a kitten foster mom since I am currently fostering two adorable, 3 month old kittens through a local rescue, Zoe’s Animal Rescue. You can find the thread here: https://twitter.com/ayycgirlinyeg/status/1321948857215799296.
When I arrive home from work, I am always greeted by my excited dog, Zola who does her very best to bring me a toy to show her joy! My two resident cats appreciate me coming home (I think!) but are more interested as to when their food dishes will be filled. #catmomreality
The evening feeding frenzy consists of about 10 minutes of absolute chaos! Ensuring that the dog doesn’t eat the cat food, the cats don’t eat the kitten food and the kittens just eat!! Meanwhile, I have yet to take off my coat.
I feed the kittens separately since they’re still a bit slow and this ensures that they eat without distractions. The glamour continues with scooping the litter box with an unusual and frankly, odd excitement. #catmomsunderstand
These two both have adoption applications so I’m hoping they won’t be with me much longer. I soak up all the snuggles that I can, before the sad & happy day comes when they leave for their furever homes!
