Single Cat Foster Home NeededASAP
We have two cats in dire need of foster home placement.  The first is Holly Golightly, a beautiful light orange and white adult with the best personality you can imagine.  Holly was rescued in West Philly by a passerby and has been boarding at the vet for weeks.  She chirps when people walk by her cage, purrs constantly, and rolls over to let you rub her belly.  The problem is that Holly tested positive for feline leukemia.  Though that would usually mean euthanasia, we couldn't bring ourselves to do it.  Holly is an adult (3-5), so if she was infected as an adult, she stands a chance at living a normal life.  Holly may never be adopted because of her leukemia, and it is possible that she could get sick, so we need to find a very special foster parent who currently has no other cats (or a leukemia positive cat).  We will provide ALL veterinary care and can even pay for start-up supplies (bowls, litterbox, food, etc), if that's what it takes to find her a home.  Please help us find a home for Holly--her time is running out.  If we can't find a foster home for her by next week, we will have to euthanize her.  No one who has met Holly can stand the thought of it.  Please email/cross post this everywhere you can.

The second kitty is Walter, a friendly brown tabby with white tuxedo markings who ran up to me this morning, terrified by the strong winds whipping down our street.  He screamed to be let inside our porch and I obliged.  But we have literally NO room for Walter in our house--we need your help!  Walter will be tested, vaccinated, and neutered prior to placement in a foster home.   We don't know how he will get along with other cats, but he has been meowing at our cats through the window, so my guess is that he would be fine.  He would need to be kept in his own room for 2 weeks as a normal precaution.

I would totally take in Walter as a foster kitty but I really doubt I have enough room.

Thanks for the offer, but we've probably got a spot for Walter. Holly is still in need. How much room are we talking about?

Oh, I've already got a cat, so Holly is out. Sorry.

Yay for walter though.

Aw okay, well thank you for the offer! If Walter's foster home doesn't work out I will certainly let you know.
