I fall in love all over again. They are the sweetest!

They really do grow too fast, wish they could stay little fluff balls for just a little while longer.

I have two cats who are seriously ill; they'll both have to be euthanized soon. I don't know what I'm going to do with my heart and mind. I've had one of them for 20 years.

When you foster does giving them back break your heart? I really want to help out but I'm not sure my heart can take it. I just don't want to adopt another cat, only to have her put to sleep in the future. How do you handle it?

was to foster and find them homes, then I ended up keeping them. I had the little black kitten for 2 weeks before she was well enough for her new home, and I still think of her...you may end up like me, keeping them all!

For what it's worth, I don't regret keeping any of my fosters.
