FOSTER
We are currently in need of responsible foster homes.
Foster care provides un-adoptable animals with temporary housing until they are in adoptable condition. The foster caretaker shall provide the animal(s) with care that includes, but not limited to, food, water, shelter, grooming, training, rehabilitation, and medication when required.
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 have applications for volunteer foster caregivers at the adoption center located at 7713 W. 92nd Avenue Westminster, CO. 80021
