100s of orphaned kittens are relinquished to Los Angeles animal shelters every day. In order to give these kittens the best possible chance for a happy life, the ASPCA needs to find temporary homes with caring people who will look after them for just a few weeks until they are old enough to be adopted by a new family. Kittens are too young to survive in an overcrowded shelter. Their immune systems are not strong enough yet and they usually come in from the streets and need to be socialized to living in a home. Fostering is the only way to save their lives!

We provide everything, including:

  • Food
  • Supplies
  • Medical Services
  • Support

All we need from you is TLC. Please considering opening your heart and home to a kitten in need today.

To get started, please complete the online application at www.aspca.org/FosterLA. In the application, you will need to RSVP for an upcoming virtual information session where you will learn everything you need to know about our program and ask any questions you may have.

Description

Founded in 1866, the ASPCA was the first humane organization in the Western Hemisphere. Our mission, as stated by founder Henry Bergh, is "to provide effective means for the prevention of cruelty to animals throughout the United States." While there are SPCAs and humane societies all over the country, the ASPCA is not directly affiliated with them. However, the ASPCA works nationally to rescue animals from abuse, pass humane laws and share resources with many shelters across the country.
