Save a Life - Rescue a Stray
What is the Foster Care Program?
- Many cats are homeless, living and breeding on the streets..
- Some pets are abandoned, pregnant or already have a litter of kittens.
- Individual rescuers place some cats and kittens in the homes of volunteers, who take care of them temporarily.
- By providing a safe environment these cats are saved from an outdoor feral existence or premature death.
- Once the animals are socialized, spay/neutered and vaccinated they are ready to be adopted.
What kind of animals can be placed in foster care?
- Young kittens, with or without nursing moms.
- Cats and kittens in need of socialization to become comfortable with humans.
- Rescued cats recovering from injuries, surgery or other treatable illness.
- Senior cats in need of permanent foster care.
- Surrendered pet cats that need a home environment until adopted.
What does the CNYCC Volunteer Sponsor provide?
- Basic medical care such as worm, flea and ear mite treatment.
- No cost Spay/Neuter and Vaccinations for all fostered animals.
- Low or no cost dry nutritious cat food, and litter.
- Good size protective crate/cage for indoor separate housing from your pet if necessary.
- Litter box, food dishes, scratching post and a toy.
What do foster parents do?
- Provide food and shelter in your home.
- Ensure basic care – grooming and socializing.
- Give them LOTS OF TENDER LOVING CARE!!!
-
Once the pet is adoptable, make it available for adoption events
(such as PetSmart Adopt-A-Thons).
How do I become a foster care provider?
- Call 289-CATS (2287) and leave your name, number and identify that you are interested. A Volunteer Foster Sponsor will contact you directly to ensure a foster situation comfortable for all concerned.
What a reward - the love of the kittens whose lives you save.
