Foster

 Fostering a Rescue Is a Rewarding Experience

If you are looking for a way to make a difference in the life of an animal but cannot make the commitment to adopt, fostering may be the answer.

Rewards of Fostering Rescues:

  • Fostering provides temporary care for rescues until their forever families adopt them.

  • Fostering introduces rescues to new people, animals and things they would not see in a shelter.

  • Foster homes provide a quiet environment for shelter cats and dogs needing a little extra care to recuperate from injuries, or are undergoing heartworm treatment.

  • Other rescues are young and simply need time to grow before they can be adopted, and fostering gives them the extra time they need before being adopted.

  • Fostering frees up space at our facilities enabling us to rescue more cats and dogs.

  • Fostering is free to foster parents (all food, medication, medical care, toys, etc., are provided by Colbert Veterinary Rescue Services, Inc.).
