Could you foster Rosie? Pieter is going into treatment
Looking for a kind foster home for Rosie; food and vet costs will be covered.
🇿🇦 Limpopo, South Africa577 views
I'm going into inpatient treatment on Wednesday, for about 6 weeks, and I have no family nearby to look after Rosie, my two-year-old ginger cat. Rosie is gentle, house-trained, good with children and other animals.
I'm looking for a temporary foster within Polokwane. I'll provide food, bedding and medication, and cover the vet costs. Rosie 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Polokwane.
hang in there, Pieter. Hope you get there. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Polokwane.
sending love, Pieter. Your post was clear and honest.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 17 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Rooting for you, Pieter. Poor Rosie, hope they feel better soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Thinking of you, Pieter. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Jakarta.
rooting for you. Hope you get there. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
Praying for you, Pieter. I hope things turn around soon. I'll check back for the next update
So sorry you're going through this, Pieter. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Blessings!
best of luck, Pieter. Shared this with my family. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

Thanks for sharing this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Abuja.
Stay strong, Pieter. Hope the recovery goes smoothly. Don't give up. All the best.
Best of luck. Hope you get there. Sent it to 11 people at work. Blessings.
Best of luck. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Tema so I could bring a meal. Love from Spokane!
Good luck, Pieter. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Nagpur.
