Foster

We need foster homes! 

Paws provides:​

• Food, litter, medicine, wire crates, and other supplies
• ​Veterinary care as needed
• Approved adoptive homes when ready

​Foster home responsibilities include:​

• Care for fosters for several weeks to several months
• Providing an indoor, warm, safe area for fosters away from other pets​
• Daily cleaning and feeding
• Transporting fosters to and from the shelter for medical checks and adoption days
• Communicating effectively with the foster or medical team members
• Medicating as needed
• Patience, love, & socialization

What You Need to Know

• Placements are needed for an average of 4 months. We do have some opportunities for shorter placement of 1-2 months for older (5-6 month old) kittens.​
• Our biggest need is for medical fosters, fosters for senior cats, hospice fosters, and fosters able to handle spicy kittens that will socialize them. 
• We do not have a primary foster to adopt program. If you are interested in adopting when you foster, please apply to adopt when you submit a foster application. 
• Fosters are not automatically approved to adopt. Fosters, and their acquaintances, are subject to the same rules for adoption as everyone else. 
• Must be over 18 years old. 
• Even though foster animals are to be kept separate, we require that animals in the home are spayed/neutered and current with vaccines.
