If you are looking for some inspiration then this podcast is for you for I was honoured to be able to chat to the incredible duo who make up Catastical Meows!
Mom Erin and Lil Chris are experts in fostering and have gained experience and knowledge over the past 3 years. Everything seems normal with this right.... not really when you consider that Lil Chris is only 13 years old! Already at his young age he is leading the way for becoming one of the greats of the cat world and an advocate for foster and kitten care!
Lil Chris has loved cats all through his childhood but when his mom Erin realised he had a deeper passion and wanted to learn more she totally supported it. Allowing Chris to attend numerous seminars in preparation for what was ahead really paved the way. A foster seminar ignited his drive and he was ready. The pair teamed with local rescues and the rest they say is history.
Lil Chris is always looking to expand and grow his knowledge with everything cat related and shared stories about his own personal journey which include his cat Mouse who is an FIP survivor. Mouse inspired Chris to write a book and who knows what other books are planned for the future!
It is testament to Erin that Chris conducts himself in such a humble, respectful, kind and caring way and her support and encouragement has opened so many doors already for Chris in his young life. She really is a mom in a million!!
It will be interesting to watch this young man over the next 5+ years and see how his cat journey develops.
