At Forsyth Humane Society, a foster is someone who temporarily cares for an animal in need. Fostering is free and all supplies and medical care are provided. Fosters provide love, attention, and care until the animal is ready to come back to the Adoption Center.
There are some common misconceptions we’d like to clear up. You can foster with FHS if:
- you have other pets (as long as they’re vaccinated)
- you’ve never had a pet
- you have children
- you’re unemployed/retired
- you live in an apartment
- you don’t have a fenced in yard
- you live alone
- you’re a college student (as long as you live off campus)
