foster program

Become part of our foster care program and you could be the difference between life and death for animals that can't be adopted right away. Unfortunately, some animals that are brought in to our shelter are too sick, too young, or not socialized enough to be adopted out. They could be excellent pets, however, once they are healthy, socialized, or just plain older.

Foster volunteers take these animals into their home, providing a safe environment for them to mature, become more socialized, or heal from an existing wound or illness. This can be an intense short-term commitment, but also a very rewarding one.

Need is especially great during the spring/summer kitten season, when pregnant cats and mothers with litters of kittens (and in many cases the kittens' mothers) are brought to our shelters. Until the kittens are old enough to be weaned, separated from the mother, and spayed or neutered, they cannot be put up for adoption.
