Foster care is particularly helpful for the young, sick, injured, orphaned, juvenile and elderly. These animals do not do well in a shelter situation. Stress decreases their already compromised immune system. Foster caretakers that own other animals need to understand the risk of fostering. Cat owning caretakers fostering cats should make sure their cats have tested negative for feline leukemia and feline aids virus. Both dog and cat owners should have their animals current on vaccinations.

We are currently in need of responsible foster homes. We have applications at the shelter. Call us at 303-432-2299, or send an email to almosthomeadoptions@yahoo.com . After filling out an application, you will be interviewed and we will do a home visit. This is a very rewarding experience. You can make a huge difference.
