Yes
No
Depends on the Size

If possible, kittens will be kept with the mother until 12 weeks of age. If the mom can not be kept until that time (stray/feral/medical reasons), kittens will still stay together, as a litter, until they reach 12 weeks of age

Yes
No
I’d like to learn

Sometimes we end up with kittens too small to care for themselves. They are a lot of work. It is very helpful to know if you are able to assist with their care

Do You have Experience with Stray and Feral Cats

Yes
No

Are You Willing to Foster a Stray or Feral Mother with a Litter of Kittens

Yes
No
I Would Like to Discuss this Option

We often receive a stray or feral cat who has a litter of kittens. The mothers most often can not be touched or interacted with, but we was the babies to be socialized as much as possible, so they do not have to be returned outdoors. Specific conditions would be discussed

Yes
No
I Would Like Guidance on Helping Them Adjust

Cat and Kittens can take several weeks to adjust to new surroundings and require patients and love

If You Have Young Children, Have They Been Exposed to Pets and Taught how to Treat Them With Respect

Yes
Yes, But They’re Young and Learning
They Will be Watched Closely and Taught

It is very important that children respect animals. They are not toys, and if they are injured or feel threatened, it can result in injury for your child. This is the nature of an animal and they can not be blamed for this. It is your responsibility to keep your children and your pets safe.

Yes
No

Are You Able and Willing to Provide Clean Drinking Water and Adequate Food

No

Supplies can be provided by Tails of Hope, supplied by foster, donated by foster with receipt or purchased by foster and reimbursed, but the foster must agree to make sure the animal(s) have access to these things at all times
