If you have extra room in your home, and in your heart, we need your help!
Foster homes are needed for kittens aged between 4 weeks to 12 weeks, cats waiting to clear quarantine before being accepted into Homeward Bound's adoption program, special needs cats, or cats who do not do well at the adoption center, and cats who may have been in the adoption center for a while and need a little break for a week or two. The fostering term is as little at 2 weeks, to as long as 6 months. Our current foster homes are bursting at the seams and we need more!
Veterinary care, food, and litter for foster cats and kittens is covered 100% by Homeward Bound, however if you are able to cover the cost of your fosters' food and litter during their time in your care, we would appreciate that as well, since we are funded completely by donations, and not taxpayer dollars.
The more foster families we have, the more lives we can save!
Our current Petsmart adoption center is on Eastern/Russell at 5915 South Eastern Avenue, Las Vegas, Nevada 89119

Mission Statement
Homeward Bound's goal is to offer the Southern Nevada community the option of placing for adoption, domestic cats and kittens who are found as strays, or need to be re-homed, by operating adoption centers that provide the community with a selection of healthy adoptable animals, paying for vetting of our available cats for adoption, educating the community on the responsibility of spaying/neutering pets, establishing a network of reliable and loving foster homes to provide temporary care for cats and kittens awaiting adoption, creating a facility in which we care for relinquished cats while we evaluate their behavior, temperament, health, and any special needs they may have prior to placing them in our adoption centers, and reducing the number of domestic cats who are abandoned, euthanized, or placed in local kill shelters.
Description
Homeward Bound Cat Adoptions is a non-profit charitable corporation that offers our community another resource and option for those wishing to find homes for domestic cats/kittens needing to be re-homed. Homeward Bound envisions a community in which no pet owner is forced to make a choice to abandon an unwanted cat or kitten or relinquish the pet to a kill shelter. We adopt only spayed and neutered cats and kittens, therefore all kittens are held in foster homes until they are approximately 14 weeks old. We raise community awareness by sending out success stories and raise funding through parking lot sales and unique and fun events.
