All these four infants arrived practically on the same day, all four as beautiful and charming as can be. Both sets have lost their mothers and now they are at the greatest risk. They are not yet two months old - that is, the "safe" age, when the young pup or kitten can mostly make it. It's likely that they might fall ill and in the middle of hundreds of other animals, the going gets very tough.That's why we are constantly on the look out for foster parents for these cute little types. Caring for them at home is pure pleasure. They have very simple wants - they eat, play and sleep a lot. Yes, they do mess a bit, but they are also very fastidious when it comes to 'going to the toilet' and learn very quickly with a little gentle guidance.
There are other pleasures in looking after young pups or kittens. They are such fun to watch when at play. A pair of kittens can get up to so much mischief that they can make you rock with laughter. One of the most endearing sights in the world is to watch two small pups at play. They run off with each others toys, engage in mock fights and tug-of-war with an old sock or anything that they are provided with. After play, the little ones get so exhausted that they will sleep for upto three hours at a stretch.
Yes, it is not at all difficult to keep a pair of little ones in foster care. And the wonderful thought is that you are giving them a chance of simply living a good long healthy life. Something that they probably will not experience, waiting at an animal shelter for someone to come and adopt them.
