FOSTER
​
Foster caregivers are volunteers who care for animals in their home until they are strong enough or well enough to be made available for adoption.
​
VVAPL’s Foster Program requires at least an 8 week commitment. Fosters must be at least 18 years old, complete orientation, and pass a background check.
​
If you’d like to be considered as a foster caregiver, please complete the Foster Interest Form, and one of our staff members will be in touch.
Animals needing foster homes:
-
Orphaned kittens and puppies.
-
Underaged, self-feeding kittens and puppies (4 – 8 weeks old).
-
Mother cat or dog with nursing kittens or puppies.
-
Shy or fearful animals who need socialization.
-
Healthy older adult animals (who are usually already house trained) who could benefit from home care—especially in the spring and summer when the youngsters are getting the attention.
