The quarantine...is it put him/her in a different room, no contact with my little ones, not even a nose greeting?
Should I put him/her in a crate. What happens when he/she sees my little ones roaming freely and playing? Won't that make him/her feel unwanted? That would be tough for me. I have to figure out how to do it without hurting the little angel even more  |
A quarantine in a home is much better than being in a shelter! If you look at it that way, you will not feel as bad.
I always put them in an x-pen in a room by themselves, or in one of my bathrooms....and NO...no nose greetings! If there is any illness it can be easily passed that way.
Yes, you will get attached, but when they find their forever home it is such a good feeling! I get lots of email and pictures from my former fosters' parents and it is such a great feeling! It is heartwrenching, but oh, so rewarding!
