Foster an Animal
Why Foster an Animal?
Foster care is the perfect opportunity for you and your family to learn and care for a pet without the obligation of a long-term commitment.
Foster Volunteers provide temporary care for animals in their homes until they are ready to be adopted. Animal Services will provide the initial food and litter. We also provide medical services to your foster pets. The expected time commitment will vary and depend on the pet in need of fostering.
We need foster homes for animals that are:
-
Orphaned kittens
-
Nursing or expecting mothers
-
Recovering surgery patients
-
Pets in need of behaviour modification
-
Rabbits and other small animals
