So the raccoons are all grown up and I have kicked their fluffy butts out into the woods.
Not that this leaves me foster-less, mind you. There is also the horribly aptly named Chewy; a 6 month old Golden Retriever who was released because the owner couldn't afford surgery to remove the chunk of wood that lodged in his intestine after he chewed it up and swallowed.

On a related note, I got an email today about him, which I shall reproduce here in its entirety for your amusement.
Did Chewy get adopted or is he still available?Italics and bold in the original, NOT my additions. I did not omit the name to protect the innocent, there was none in the email; no signature of any kind. Does anyone else find this rather... brusque? I have a fairly strong feeling that this person (whoever they are) will not be adopting a foster from me. I did, in an attempt to be non-judgmental, send them an application to fill out, but frankly will be surprised if it gets returned, since I'm declaring a minimum donation for adoption of $100. Experience with this sort of email leads me to believe that people who have money to spend on adoptions also manage to find time and keystrokes enough to spend on signatures.
