Animal Foster Parents Needed!

Save to Favorites

The Spokane Humane Society relies heavily on its foster parents to help save thousands of lives!

The Benefits of Fostering

• Have an animal companion without the lifetime commitment.
• Help an animal recover from an illness/injury, with medical care covered by SHS.
• Give extra TLC to puppies and kittens too young to be adopted.
• Foster homes help animals transition from the stress of living at the shelter.

Responsibilities of Foster Parents

• Provide a safe, clean, and caring environment.
• Provide food, water, litter, toys/enrichment, and shelter.
• Provide exercise and socialization if appropriate.
• Monitor for physical and mental wellbeing.
• Transport to/from any necessary vet appointments.
• Transport to/from offsite adoption events
• If you are fostering kittens or puppies, isolation from other animals in the home is required for a minimum of 14 days.
