BE A LIFE SAVER! Foster a Pet Patrol Cat!
There are many rewards to fostering.
Some cats entering the care of Pet Patrol are frightened and desperately in need of compassion and affection, some are recovering from illness, injury, starvation or abuse and others are friendly and loving. After receiving a vet check-up, treatment for parasites and vaccinations, our cats are spayed or neutered and then placed into foster care. Living in our comfortable homes will bring out the best in the cat, but it takes time and patience. This could mean weeks, but more often means months of nursing, socializing and good old tender loving care.
Fostering cats is a rewarding and heart warming experience!
As a foster caregiver, you will meet people with whom you share your love of cats, learn more about felines than you presently know, and appreciate the dedication needed to help these cats in crisis. You will also have the opportunity to watch the wretched little creatures we accept into our custody change into healthy, well-adjusted cats, ready to be adopted by a responsible person with a loving and permanent home. Most of all you, will gain the satisfaction of knowing you have literally saved a life!
You have made a difference!
Pet Patrol regularly receives calls about abandoned and lost cats. We encourage the caller to provide comfort and food for the cat, and to bring it into their home until foster space is found – but space is desperately limited.
Fostering is not a difficult or complicated process. With the exception of our requirement that all Foster Care Providers follow an integration procedure and that they keep the Foster Cat indoors, you will basically be treating the cat as if it were your own cherished pet.
