Retention Foster
Often we have citizens reach out to use who are going through hard times and are temporarily unable to care for their beloved pets. Rather than having those citizens surrender their pets, our Pet Support Team is able to connect that citizen with resources to get back on their feet, while our foster volunteers provide a safe place for their pets until they are able to reclaim them.
Retention fosters are long term commitments, averaging 30-90 days. These pets are not available for adoption unless the owner is unable to reclaim their pet at the end of the agreed upon time. In some cases, the owner’s situation may be confidential, foster volunteers are expected to use discretion.
