Kitten season is here… but our adult cats need you just as much!! 🐾
This time of year, we need as many kitten fosters as we can get. However, we also need fosters for adult cats! They can sometimes get overlooked as kittens pour in during the summer.
Many of them are terrified in the shelter. They’re hiding, shut down, and overwhelmed by the unfamiliar sights and sounds. What they need most isn’t a kennel, they need a home! A foster home can be a quiet place to decompress and show off their true personalities for future adoption.
Whether you open your home to a litter of kittens or a scared adult cat, you are giving them the chance they need to thrive outside of the shelter walls and get ready for their adoptive homes!
We urgently need adult cat fosters right now, especially our shy and fearful cats who need a safe place to blossom. We’ll provide support, supplies, and guidance every step of the way!
Please consider signing up to foster today. One spare room, one bathroom, or one quiet corner of your home could completely change a kitty's life.
