Become a foster for a loving pet!Open your home to a dog or cat and provide attention and a temporary place to live until a permanent home can be found. If you cannot give a forever home to a pet right now, this is a great way to enjoy some love and good company without making a permanent commitment.Why are foster homes needed?  Foster
homes can provide a dog or cat a place to live when the sanctuary
is at capacity Some dogs
and cats are frightened or may be injured or ill and need special
or individual attention for a while until adoption Some dogs
and cats need special attention and training before adoption Some dogs
or cats may not get along with other dogs/cats and need a less stressful
community environment than the sanctuaryWhat are the roles and responsibilities of a pet foster? Provide
dogs and cats with loving attention, proper care, housing, food
and water Keep dogs
on a leash, in a secured area and safe from the elements and harm Keep cats
inside at all times Keep all
shots, heartworm, flea and tick preventative treatment current Get to
know the dog or cat to help our organization provide details of
their personality and needs to prospective adopters Some dogs
and cats need socialization and training. Some shy or timid dogs
and cats need a quiet environment and time to learn to trust peopleHow long will the dog/cat need fostering? The time will vary depending on the speed of finding an adoptive home. If that period is longer than expected/acceptable to the foster, the dog/cat can be moved to the sanctuary or another foster as soon as possible. The time period is flexible. How will ECAH provide support? Provide
financial support for the medical expenses, and, if needed, other
expenses Help you
set up and will always be available to answer questions and more
Concerned it will be difficult to give up your foster pet? Of course, if you can and want to adopt your foster pet, that is always an option, and we want to see all our pets in foster care stay with the person(s) they have come to love and trust. But if your circumstances do not make that possible, and you need to return your foster pet to us, you will always know that you made it possible for this pet to transition to a permanent home. Your foster pet will always remember, love, and thank you for your help. What is the next step? Complete a fostering application and agreement, and if you are in a good position to foster, we will get you set up and started. Foster Care Application and Agreement (form will open in a seperate window) Please fill out the application above and mail to: ECAH Animals, Inc PO Box 10250 Tallahassee, FL 32302
