Home for the Holidays

We want to get every pet out of our shelter and into a warm, loving foster home for the holiday season — and we need your help!

Fostering for just a short time (approximately December 21 – January 5 or 6) gives our animals a much-needed break from the shelter and fills their holidays with comfort, joy, and love.

We are especially in need of: adult cat fosters, big dog fosters, and backup fosters for unexpected emergencies.

We provide all supplies — you provide the love.

Fosters will have the option to adopt their holiday guest once the foster period ends! Even while the shelter is closed for the holidays, our team will be available if you have questions or need support.

Approved fosters:

If you’d like to help, send us an email and include:

• Whether you want to foster dogs or cats

• Any restrictions (size, age, medical needs, etc.)

• Whether you’re open to large dogs

• What pets you currently have at home

We’ll match you with the purrfect holiday companion!

Thank you for opening your home and sharing the warmth of the season with pets in need!
