How do I become a foster?
Start out by filling out our foster application using this link: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/foster/PHKS/Cat .
Once you’ve filled out the application, a member of our team will review it and reach out to you!
What if I’ve never fostered before?
That’s perfectly okay! We’re here to walk you through every step of the way. As long as you’re willing to open up your home to a kitty in need and you promise to love it as much as you can, you’re already doing great!
What will my duties be as a foster?
Your main duty is the best one – to love and snuggle on some kitties! Besides that, we require you to drive your foster(s) to and from vet appointments, which may be early in the morning or possibly a bit of a drive depending on where you’re coming from. If your foster is taking any kind of medication you’ll need to be able to give it to them. Since we are a foster-based rescue, we rely solely on you guys! That means, if you agree to foster a cat for us, you will be fostering that cat until it is adopted. Sometimes that happens quickly and sometimes that takes a little while. We understand if an emergency happens which doesn’t allow you to continue to foster any longer, but other than that we do need you to keep your new foster as long as necessary!
Will PHAR provide supplies?
Since we are a small rescue we don’t always have food or other supplies to give out. In that event, we do ask you to be prepared to provide supplies for your foster kitty on your own. If we have the supplies, though, we will always give what we have to our fosters! We try our best to take care of our fosters because we appreciate them so much!
