As a foster-network rescue group, we cannot committ to rescuing kittens unless we have foster homes.
Typically, families foster a litter of kittens for at least two weeks. Each litter is different, some need socialization, some are without the mother cat, and some require bottle-feeding. We will match your foster kitties to your personal capabilities.
We provide the food, litter, litter box, bedding, and everything you need to foster the kitties. We provide medical treatments and routine vaccinations. You provide the kittens with a wonderful foster family and lots of love! |
