Oh I agree. Our foster leader is another American here in Costa Rica.
I've got 12 1/2 acres. Kitty apartments. 4 houses. A caretaker. At the time I was also housing 5 workers. They helped me socialize the kittens. Some needed to be bottle fed goats milk. Lots of food.
Each over 4 months needed neutering. Lots of expensive surgeries.
But as soon as one group was ready for permanent adoption,a new bunch would be delivered. We are a non profit organization in Costa Rica.
After my last ip, my husband wanted me to take a break.
I rescued this kitten on recommendation of my caretaker. She was abandoned and starving.
I had a kitten killed by a dog. Was grieving. My neighbor was working construction here. He told me about the organization DAWGs.
That's how I got into fostering.
I'm sure the need is great in the USA too.
