A short-term foster for a calm tabby cat in Paarl while the owner recovers.

Paarl
I'm going into a rehabilitation unit on Sunday, for about 6 weeks, and I have no family nearby to look after Pepper, my eleven-year-old tabby cat. Pepper is a bit shy at first but really affectionate. I'm looking for a temporary foster within Paarl. I'll provide food, bedding and medication, and cover the vet costs. Pepper 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
