Fosters are at the heart of what we do.

Why do cats need fosters?

So many of the cats we rescue come from uncertain and unsafe environments. Many have been picked up as strays or abandoned by their owners. Regardless of their past, transitioning into our program can sometimes be traumatic. Our foster homes provide a stable, nurturing environment for cats when they first join us, making that transition a little easier.

What do fosters do?

Foster homes are our direct connection to cats in need. They are are responsible for choosing (or having our foster home coordinator choose) pets to foster, scheduling and transporting to and from vet appointments, ensuring that they are well-socialized and trained, and feeding and grooming while pets are in their care.

Who can be a foster?

Fostering requires time, flexibility and patience. But don’t worry, we are here to walk you through the process and support you along the way. We’ll also help you discover what type of fostering is right for you and your home. Baby Bottle Kittens need attention around the clock, while some Returned Cats just need a quiet space to feel safe and a few trips to the vet.
