Temp Foster Parents Needed!
Throughout the year, we need temporary foster homes for kittens/puppies that are too young for adoption, orphaned kitten or puppy "bottle babies", and nursing litters of kittens and puppies with their mamas. Foster homes provide care for 2-8 weeks while the animals develop physically and learn socialization skills from their littermates and caretakers. Fosters are provided with everything they need: crates, bowls, ex-pens, cat condo's for litters of kittens, litter and pan, toys, towels, dry and moist food, formula and bottles -- all you need to provide is plenty of love and a safe home environment.

Often we take in dogs or puppies that have had no socialization with people or other animals. We utilize foster parents to rehabilitate shy, timid, fearful puppies, dogs or cats so they can learn to trust people and develop into adoptable pets.

Foster parents are also needed for animals recovering from various types of surgery. Recovery is much quicker when animals have a home environment in which to recuperate. Medical care for these animals is provided by our clinic staff at Animal Humane.

Fostering can be mutually beneficial to you and our companion animals. While providing foster care, you can observe the development of playful kittens and puppies with your family. Children can learn the responsibilities of properly caring for animals. If you aren't sure if you are ready for full-time pet ownership, short term fostering can fill the gap. It can help you decide if you are ready for the long-term commitment that adoption of a dog or cat brings.

If you are interested in providing temporary foster care, please contact Boni Galarneau, Foster Care Coordinator at 255-5523 ext. 119 or 991-0056 cell. A foster application can be emailed or snail mailed to you, or you can drop by the shelter to pick one up.
