We’re All In This Together: Web series for seniors explores animal fostering
It’s time for kitten cuddles during the next episode in the web series We’re All In This Together. Animal Fostering with Cindy, will be released on Friday, April 23 at 6 p.m.
Each bi-weekly episode of the 18-episode series, directed by Montrealbased filmmaker Bobbi Jo Hart, features entertainment, activities and conversations designed to connect with those in need of support and empathy… with a gentle reminder that we are, indeed, all in this together.
As the founder of Heart in Hand Rescue, which saves over 1,000 cats and kittens every year, Cindy discusses what is means to foster a cat, what you can expect and what is required. She will also introduce us to an intergenerational family who share the joy and sense of purpose by protecting the felines in our community.
Animal shelters rely heavily on the help of foster families to support cats who may need extra attention, who are pregnant or who just don’t have anywhere safe to go. If you are curious about having a pet but not quite sure about the commitment, fostering is a great place to start!
Episodes released so far can easily be found on Youtube (Search keys words “We’re All In This Together Senior Web Series”) and Facebook (Search
“Wereallinthistogetherquebec”), and are available for anyone to enjoy.
This is also a great opportunity to take a moment to assure that the seniors around you are able to access the internet, so that they are able to take advantage of all the online resources available to them.
The project is the result of a collaboration between Seniors Action Quebec, which works to maintain and enhance the vitality of Englishspeaking Quebec seniors, and the English Language Arts Network (ELAN), a meeting place for Englishlanguage artists and cultural workers of all disciplines from every region of Quebec.
