fostering "millie" - YorkieTalk.com Forums

i recently decided to foster a kitty from a high kill shelter. im bringing her back to health so she can go to a forever home (im a dirt poor student just trying to help!), and its been very interesting to say the least...with a year old yorkie!

i didnt include the picture of her from the shelter cause it makes me sad, but these were after a few days of her being home and finally warming up to me! i love it. ive never had a cat so this is all new to me, but so rewarding! and tyce and her are still getting used to eachother. i think they are slightly cofused..millie is wondering why hes so crazy, and tyce is wondering how she gets on top of the fridge!

well, i'm only 20 and in school full time, so owning another animal would be terrifying for my finanaces! haha. i'm already worried if anything (god forbid) happens to tyce what i will do to pay for it if its really expensive (i know my parents would always help me if i needed it), but i dont think i could afford to add another pet to the family for their well being.

but, the way i see it, once she finds a home i can foster another one and save more lives! (the rescue program pays for all the vet needs if there are any, and transportation, etc) at no cost to me! i will when im older.

You are doing a wonderful thing...she is a little beauty. My two yorkies give my cat a run for his money....the only time he likes them is when they are asleep....LOL
