C.A.T.S. Foster Homes

Cats About Town Society cares for homeless cats and kittens by placing them in volunteer foster homes until a permanent home can be found. We have weekly adoption events to try and find loving and caring homes for these pets. We are always in need of foster homes to care for the many abandoned and homeless cats and kittens in our area.  The requirements for foster parents are simple. Be loving and caring to the cat or kitten you are to foster. Provide food, litter and indoor shelter for the cat or kitten.  All foster animals must be kept indoors.  C.A.T.S. may be able to provide food and litter for the animal depending on current donations.  All food and litter that you purchase to care for a foster cat is tax deductable. Monitor the health of the cat or kitten.  C.A.T.S. covers the cost of all medical care for pets under our care providing the animal is taken to one of our authorized veterinarians and the care has been approved by a board member. Transport the cat or kitten to the weekly adoption events.  Transporting the cat or kitten is at the fosters convenience.  The foster parents do not need to stay during the event, just pick up the cat or kitten afterward.  We would like the cat or kitten to be exposed to as many adoption events as possible to improve the chances of adoption.  C.A.T.S. may be able to arrange for this transportation if you are not able to. Being a foster parent is a very satisfying and rewarding experience.  Sometimes parting with a foster cat or kitten that you have nurtured and cared for can be difficult. However, knowing that the new home has been carefully screened (see our adoption qualifications), you will feel joy in the fact that you have helped this cat or kitten find a better life and helped the community by reducing the number of homeless cats and kittens. Read "How I Became a Foster Parent" by Janet Bennett for a touching story about becoming a foster parent.  If you can help us by becoming a foster parent please contact us at cats@town-cats.org OR Cats About Town Society (C.A.T.S.)
