As a foster-based rescue, the Humane Society of Loudoun County (HSLC) relies on its fosters to place animals and save animal lives. Fosters help animals get ready for their forever home and are the bridge between the animals' previous life and their future furever home. As our volunteers can attest, fostering is one of the most rewarding things you will ever do. Fostering provides the love and support the animal needs to learn about their behavior, help their socialization, and increase their chances of getting adopted. HSLC pays for all medical expenses incurred while the animal is in foster care. We ask the fosters bring their foster animal to at least one adoption event a month. We need fosters for dogs, kittens and cats. A new foster parent will receive an initial one-on-one foster orientation meeting at your residence. Afterwards, follow-up meetings and mentoring / guidance will be provided as needed. For more information on fostering, please visit our website at https://humaneloudoun.org/adopt/fosters-needed/. Benefits of volunteering in this role include: Dog or cat cuddles, kisses, and love Opportunity to truly save the life of an animal Invitation to volunteer appreciation events Opportunity to be highlighted in HSLC's Paw Prints Newsletter

Help us catch cats to save the lives of feral cats and kittens by volunteering with our Community Cats/Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program, while also helping control the overpopulation of feral cats in Loudoun County. Be part of a team of committed volunteers, dedicated to improving the lives of feral and stray cats and kittens. TNR is the only proven method for improving the lives of Community Cats and stopping the problem of overpopulation due to the endless cycle of mating and kittens. Trappers help Community (feral) Cats by trapping them in humane traps (which we provide), and helping to get them to our vet partners to be neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Humanely trap the cats and kittens in conjunction with scheduled vet clinic appointments. Work with Coordinator, caretakers, and transporters to get cats to/from clinics and their overnight housing. Work with Coordinator to schedule and plan trapping in conjunction with monthly trips to mass TNR clinics.

Location: Volunteers supporting the Community Cats / TNR Program work throughout the Loudoun County community. Time Commitment: Flexible based on volunteer schedules. Days and times vary.
