Foster FAQs

Good questions

How long is a foster stay?

Most placements last four to six weeks. Pets recovering from surgery or heartworm treatment may need longer.

What does fostering cost me?

We cover approved medical care for every foster. Texas fosters also get kennels, food, and collars. PNW fosters provide routine supplies.

Can I foster cats?

Yes! Houston-area cat and kitten fosters are especially needed.

Can I pick the pet I foster?

Needs change daily, so work with a coordinator. They’ll match you with a pet that fits your home and schedule.

Borrow a pet. Save a life.

Make room for a little more love.

Fostering is flexible, supported, and one of the fastest ways to save another life.
