I'm currently fostering a cat for the local Humane Society. She just had a litter of kittens five days ago. Obviously they will all be with me for quite a while longer, but I've been thinking about the best way to find mama a new home. Once the kittens are weaned, she will be spayed and I have the option to try to adopt her out from my home, or take her back to the shelter to be adopted. The shelter is a very nice no-kill facility with very several housing areas and playrooms for the cats, so I wouldn't feel bad about taking her there. Personally, if I were looking for a cat, I would go to a shelter where I could see several different cats in person and possibly adopt one that day. If I were to adopt her out from my home, a person would have to contact me and make an appointment to see her, and then go to the shelter to fill out the paperwork, then return the paperwork to me before they could take her home. There's certainly an excess of homeless cats in this city and I don't know how likely potential adopters would be to go to the extra effort to find her. She's a cute little girl, not timid and generally sweet (unless you're trying to medicate her or take her temperature), and I want to give her the best possible chance of finding a new home. Would love some opinions. Thanks!
