The Best Things in Life Are Rescued. Be a Foster! =^..^=

Save to Favorites

AdvoCat Rescue is looking for volunteers to foster cat(s) and/or kittens in their home and provide lots of love and TLC while we search for their furever homes.

So many cats and kittens are in desperate need of temporary homes on their path to safety.

You can be an integral part of rescue by opening your home and proving TLC on their journey off the streets.

Foster Volunteer FAQs

What kind of animals need foster care?

• Cats and kittens
• Mothers with nursing litters
• Special needs fosters

Can I become a foster volunteer if I have pets of my own?

• Absolutely! We welcome pet owners as foster volunteers. Plus it’s a great way to test a particular cat’s compatibility with other animals (or your own pet's compatibility!)

How long do animals need to stay in foster care?

• The typical foster stay is two weeks to two months, depending on the needs of the individual animal(s) in your care.

What expenses are involved with foster care?

• Foster families provide housing, food, bedding and toys for the animals in their care. They also provide exercise, socialization and lots of love!
• AdvoCat Rescue provides all medical care for animals in foster homes, including vaccination, medications and spay/neuter surgery and any other medical that may be needed.
• We also provide start-up items like litter box, scoop, playpen (for kittens), and some food to get you started.

What is expected of the foster parent?

• We would love our foster parents to treat their foster cat(s) or kittens like resident cats, giving them the love and attention that every animal deserves
• Occasionally our kitties may need to go to our vet. Kittens will need routine vaccinations, and of course, if medical issues are present or arise, as their foster parent, to help out with vet visits, which AdvoCat Rescue will pay for.

As a foster, am I responsible to find their furever home?

• Absolutely not, but if you wanted to help, we would appreciate and welcome it!
• We will network the cats and kittens and screen applicants prior to arranging for anyone to meet the kitty. Please note that since COVID-19 all meet and greets are done virtually for everyone's safety.
• We will request that you provide clear and bright photos of the cat(s) or kittens so that we can network them on Petfinder, AdoptAPet, and social media sites.
