FOSTERING ANIMALS:

We foster pets that come into our care for many reasons.

Primarily, we require fosters for pregnant mom and kittens.  Our kittens stay in homes until they are 14 weeks of age and then they come to the shelter.  We provide guidance and some training for this type of fostering.

Secondly, we require fosters for dogs that come into our care before they are listed for adoption.  Our dogs are fostered in individual homes, not within the shelter.  This gives us a better idea of how well-trained and behaved the dog will be in a home environment.  Some behavior training and experience with dogs is highly recommended.

Thirdly, we require fosters for senior cats or cats with medical issues.  For these cats, we require a quiet home environment.  We look after the medical costs for these pets.   Home visits may be required by staff and medical appointments for the cat must be arranged through the shelter.

For all foster homes, we provide the supplies required for fostering pets.  Many fosters choose to supply some or all of the supplies and food for the fostered pets, but it is not a requirement.

Please complete, and submit the FOSTER APPLICATION FORM.
