Looking for a kind foster home for Luna; food and vet costs will be covered.

I'm going into a rehabilitation unit on Thursday, for about 5 weeks, and I have no family nearby to look after Luna, my four-year-old rescue cat. Luna is gentle, house-trained, good with children and other animals. I'm looking for a temporary foster within Durham. I'll provide food, bedding and medication, and cover the vet costs. Luna is vaccinated, neutered and microchipped. I'd love to share regular updates and photos, and I'd love to pay it forward by volunteering at the shelter when I'm better. Thank you for reading my story.

    Keep going. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care

                You're not alone, Marilyn. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

                    Wishing you the best, Marilyn. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out.
