That is the most difficult part about fostering. The reward of seeing them adopted into loving forever homes barely outweigh the hurt of losing them.
Fostering is a good way to interact with different breeds and personalities. I have had the pleasure of knowing
Katie, a Jersey Wooly, and
Andrew Allen, a tortie Dutch, and
Charlie Bear, a broken lop who was so funny, and
Joseph James, a BEW Polish, and
Cora, a mini-rex with harlequin marks, and finally,
Ellie, a black and white Dutch. I would keep them all if I had the room, but Naturestee always manages to talk some sense into me.
Wabbitdad is right, it could be so easy to let the herd get too big too easily. I am thinking about keeping Ellie because she may have dental issue and many people may not want to care for a rabbit with such needs. Patrick is already in love with her, but I have to work onconvincing the girls they need another sister. Ellie reminds me so much of Luna, but is that the entire reason for keeping her, or do I really need to have four bunnies of my own to care for? Tough decisions....
Good Luck Helen with your decision...
