Foster Parents provide a temporary, caring environment in the privacy of their home for sick, injured, newborn, or otherwise needful animals. The goal is to return the animal to the shelter as a healthy and adoptable companion. It is the foster parent's responsibility to feed, groom, socialize, house train, and medicate animals while in their home environment. It is also important to ensure the animal’s safety and to respond to his/her immediate needs.
Foster animals must be isolated from any pets, and resident animals must be current on all vaccinations. The Foster Care Coordinator should be regularly updated on the animal(s) health, temperament, and behavior. It is the foster parent's responsibility to bring the animal to the shelter for any necessary treatments, vaccines and/or to return the animal at the proper time. CCR provides all necesary supplies. However, you may purchase supplies as a donation to help with funding.
Fostering is a great way to give back and save lives at the same time!
