SPECIAL FOSTER-TO-ADOPT HOME NEEDED!!
Healing Animal Scars – Sonya’s Cat & Animal Rescue Society is looking for a special foster-to-adopt home for Fern. A foster home that could potentially become her forever home. She cannot be adopted yet because Fern has not been spayed yet.
She is still nursing her 5 kittens plus 2 orphans.
We have to wait a period of time for her milk to dry up before she could have surgery . Our veterinarians could do a flank spay on her so she could continue to nurse, but all the kittens are well over 2 months old and she is tired of nursing them. Her poor little body deserves a break!
Fern is still just a baby herself, because we think she’s under 12 months old! She was probably under 6 months old when she got pregnant with her kittens.. She has a sweet personality and she is playful when she’s not busy taking care of all the kittens. She has a tiny frame, just over 6 pounds. We have been trying to fatten her up since she arrived but everything she eats goes into making milk for the babies.
She developed what the veterinarian believes is a stress related urinary tract infection while she was here. I noticed that she was peeing on a couple of the cat beds in the Foster room. A urinalysis showed that she had a few crystals as well so we put her on a special urinary diet along with antibiotics for the past few weeks. We plan to bring her back to the vet for a follow up urinalysis soon.
If you feel you could offer this beautiful kitty a wonderful forever home, please contact me to fill out your adoption application today.????????????
If she goes to a home before she is spayed, the Foster/adopter would have to assure me they would keep her in and make sure she does not get outside to make more babies!!
Call Sonya at 902-469-6369 to have an adoption discussion before emailing katsonya@accesswave.ca for an application form.
The adoption fee for an adult cat is $250, Which includes testing for feline leukemia and FIV, 2 sets of booster vaccines, the spay or a neuter surgery, microchip, treatment for all parasites and any existing illnesses or injuries.
Our small Foster based rescue usually reserves our space for feral cats and their offspring. A police officer called me one night saying a citizen had found a bag of kittens. The next day a nursing mother was found in the same location, obviously the mother of these kittens. Fern is not at all feral, She is ridiculously tame so obviously she used to be somebody’s pet before they abandoned her and sentenced to kittens to a fate of death.
She deserves a good forever home!
