"If I could, I would take all of them." How many times have you said that? You don't need to take them all, but you can certainly help save a few! As the saying goes, "Saving one cat may not make a difference to the world, but it makes a world of difference to that cat!"
"We would love to foster, but we just don't have the time." Yes you do. All of us work, have families & other responsibilities, just like you do!
"We will get too attached." We certainly hope so! That is what makes it so rewarding to watch these babies go into fabulous homes, then keep in touch with the adoptive families! A few years from now, you will still be getting Christmas card photos of kittens you helped save!
There is absolutely no person more valuable to a rescue organization than a foster parent. In fact, animal rescue would be almost impossible if it weren't for the caring souls willing to open their hearts and their homes to these animals in desperate need of a temporary, loving environment.
Foster parenting entails nothing more than allowing an animal who is in the rescue's system to stay in your home and receive the love, nurturing and daily care that any animal deserves until he or she finds a permanent home. It's not nearly as intimidating as it may sound; it's extremely fun & very rewarding. Our foster homes are wonderful people with normal everyday jobs & routines just like you!
We desperately need your help!!!
If you would like to become a foster home, please complete our Volunteer Application by clicking HERE. We look forward to a partnership with you.
