Can I Stay at Your Place for Awhile?

 Your first step to fostering for PALS is to complete our Foster Interest Form.  If foster opportunities are available, we'll contact you to schedule a Foster Training Session where you'll learn everything you need to know to start fostering! 

 As a PAL foster parent, you’ll never feel alone. You get support from our shelter staff and veterinary hospital, and from a close-knit team of fellow foster volunteers. 

 Each time you foster, you’ll receive a foster bag filled with the supplies you may need. PALS covers all medical costs and food for your foster animals. Foster families may supply some basic items, like bedding, food/water dishes, litter and litter box, and toys. 

 Fostering is a lot of fun — but it’s not always easy. You’ll need to ensure your kittens or cats are getting proper care, including timely vaccinations. (Don't worry, you'll have help!)

You're also going to become an advocate for your foster animals to help them find adoptive homes once they’re ready. 

 Fostering is a temporary situation and letting go of one foster kitty means you'll be able to help another. But it can still be hard to say goodbye. Thankfully, our foster team is here to help you through it.

Every adoption saves one life, but a dedicated foster parent can save lots of lives by caring for many kitties who need extra help to find their own new homes. Goodbyes are tough, but oh-so-rewarding too!
