I'm considering fostering small dogs and kittens. They would be kept in another room away from Emery (door closed in bedroom for Emery). Is there anything I should know about what to expect when fostering animals?
I'm doing my research first, and I also really need to think about whether this is even a good thing for me to take on or not. I would love to hear about your experiences with fostering animals. I feel like saying goodbye to them so they can go to their new homes would be rewarding, but also extremely difficult. I'm a little worried saying farewell will be too difficult for me and that I will end up adopting too many animals. Right now, I'm only looking to adopt a dog, and not even immediately at that.
If I do decide to foster animals, are there any transmitable diseases or parasites from dogs and cats that would be contagious to Emery? I know saliva is the worst. Like I said, they would be separated and everything, but it would be good to know regardless.
