Animal Foster Parents
Have any of you ever fostered an animal before? For the last 3 months, I have been given the wonderful opportunity to foster three Bennetts Wallabies ( for those of you who don't know what they are http://www.kangaroocenter.com/animal...ls/bennett.htm) I havn't had any problems 'giving up' any of my kiddos before, a little tear here and there, but when I got my newest little girl Zoey, I fell in love with her from the first night. I knew in the beginning that I really shouldnt get too emotionally close to them, but she's been with me almost 24/7 since I've gotten her. I bottle feed her, change diapers on her, she went to my classes and to work with me, and even slept in bed with me, so naturally I would become attached to her. She's exceptionally sweet for a wallaby also, she snuggles under my neck when I hold her, when she's hopping around she will follow me around the house, and when she loses me she clicks for me until I come get her, and I can't even describe how adorable her 'wallaby kisses' are, lol. Well, the woman that helps organize the adoptions is moving to another state tomorrow, which is unfortunately the day that I'm going to have to give my little Zoey back. For those of you who have gotten attached to their fosters, how did you deal after they left? Since the lady is moving, she will probably be the last wallaby that I will get to baby sit unless I go to the company head and apply for a permanent foster mom gig, but because of work and school, I wont be able to do that until this summer. Any suggestions?
