In the past I had fostered for Second Hand Purrs and it was a really great experience! It was hard to give the kittens back, but seeing the entire process made me feel so much better. The volunteers are amazing and quite a few have been there for years. I know first hand that they keep it very clean inside, with cages, floors, kitten room and constant laundry. Their adoption process really eased my mind. They charge a fee because the cats are spayed/neutered and up to date on shots. This also helps fund the shelter and all of the medical expenses. I believe it helps determine if someone is really ready to take on the commitment of adopting a cat or kitten. They do a home check, and determine if adopting is going to be a good fit or not for someone. I think this is wonderful because they are looking out for the care and safety of their cats. With a humane society it always worries me if an animal will get a good home or not with no background checking. I turned out to be a foster failure, but highly recommend Second Hand Purrs!! If you are able to foster or adopt, this enables them to rescue more cats/kittens.
