Foster Families Needed

If you are a fan of A Second Chance Puppies and Kittens Rescue, you probably already know that we are an all foster rescue organization. This means that we do not have a shelter where our animals are housed -- they live in the homes of our wonderful foster volunteers. We currently have about 30 active foster families in our program, but we are desperately in need of more.

As an all foster organization, we are limited in the number of animals that we can save by the number of foster homes we have available. Typically, foster assignments last from a few days to a few weeks. Foster families can take in one dog or cat, a litter of puppies or kittens, or a pregnant or nursing dog or cat.

Fostering an animal is a wonderful way to save the lives of animals languishing in shelters and pounds. An animal adopted from a foster environment will generally have a less difficult adjustment to a new home environment, having already lived in a home and not a noisy, overcrowded shelter. Better adjustment means better chance of successful forever adoption!

“I can’t imagine taking care of and loving an animal and then giving it up.” This is a frequent reason given for why people don’t want to get involved in fostering. Look at it this way. As a foster parent, you are a very important pit stop in the life of this animal and you will play a key role in saving its life and preparing it for its forever home. Does it break your heart a little bit to love an animal and let it go? Absolutely! Does it break your heart a little bit more to know that an animal was euthanized simply because no foster home was available?

If you become a foster parent, A Second Chance provides you with the food, the supplies (crates, kitty litter and litter boxes, etc.) and we take care of the animals’ medical needs through our veterinarian! All you need to provide is the love!

So, are you ready to become a foster parent?

If so, send an email to foster@asecondchancerescue.org or stop by and see us at PetSmart in Royal Palm Beach on Saturdays from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
