Homes are licensed under foster family group home licensing rules and have a capacity of six.
Foster care group homes are licensed by the DSS to provide services to seven or more children.
Foster homes are difficult to find and boarding is very costly, so the adoption program is one of our major expenses.

Foster homes must have an area in their home such as an extra bedroom or laundry room where they can isolate new fosters until they can get to a veterinarian to be tested for FIV and FeLV.

Foster homes Foster care providers enable our homeless cats and kittens to experience normal family life before they are adopted into permanent families.
Foster homes are everyday people willing to open their homes to care for felines needing a residence until adoptive homes can be found.
Temporary foster homes with no young children and where a dog will not have to spend too many hours of the day alone are needed.

These foster homes provide for the food and litter needed to sustain their foster animals while in their care unless food and litter donations are received and are then passed on to our foster homes.
Foster homes are meant to be a temporary solution, but it often takes years for overburdened social workers, attorneys and judges to decide where these children will live.
FOSTER HOMES Approximately 64 per cent of the children and youth currently in care are living in foster homes.
