| Do you have a sweet spot for all things furry, but are not ready to adopt for some reason or another? Or maybe you know you will be able to care for a pet for the short term, but are not sure about your long term living situation. Now could be the perfect time to become a Foster Care Guardian and open your home and your heart to a special needs pet. Click for Foster Care Application What Is Foster Care? Foster Care is an opportunity to care and love for a special needs animal in your own home, without having to make the long term commitment of ownership. In addition, Furever Friends Humane Society, Inc. provides all medical care the pet may need at no cost to the foster. Why Is Foster Care so Important? Furever Friends Humane Society, Inc. works hard to provide a second chance for every animal possible. However, we only have space for animals if we have fosters families available. Each time you bring a pet into your own home to be fostered, you provide that chance for a little animal that needs our special care and attention. What Types of Pets Need to be Fostered? Mostly dogs and cats! A foster home is a perfect layover for these pets until they find their forever home. Examples: A pregnant mother cat that needs a warm and loving environment to give birth and raise her litter. A newly born puppy that needs special attention and love that only a Foster Care parent can provide. A dog with a broken leg who has been rescued and fully cared for by our professional medical team, but needs a warm and friendly place to recuperate until he is ready to be put up for adoption. What Kind of People Are Eligible to Become Foster Guardians? Foster parenting is an opportunity to make a difference in an animal's life. Young or old, male or female, single or married is not important. We are looking for caring, compassionate individuals, 18 years of age or older, who live within 50 miles of Furever Friends Humane Society, Inc. and are willing to donate a portion of their lives to helping animals.
