Foster A Cat
Fostering a cat not only saves lives, but is a truly rewarding experience. If you've ever considered fostering, or wondered what it entails, here is some information on how it works:
What Cat Crew Rescue Provides:
-
A socializing plan for the cat and guidance on implementing it
-
Ongoing support with any issues that arise with the cat
-
All necessary supplies, including litter and litter boxes, food, cat beds and toys, dishes and water bowls as needed
-
Payment for all medical care (which is to be provided by Cat Crew Rescue approved veterinarian in advance)
-
Marketing your foster cat when he/she is ready for adoption and facilitating any introduction where the potential adopter and foster cat seem like an appropriate match
Your Responsibility as the Foster Caregiver:
-
Provide a safe, peaceful environment for your foster cat in an appropriate space for the socializing plan (e.g. extremely shy cats should be kept to one room until they are interacting with confidence)
-
Keep the cat indoors at all times with windows secured and screens only one-inch wide so the cat may not scratch through and potentially escape
-
Provide a scooped litterbox, fresh water and food (provided by Cat Crew Rescue) on a daily basis
-
Provide Cat Crew Rescue with regular updates about the cat’s progress and observe closely for any possible health or behavior issues
-
Administer any medications prescribed by a veterinarian or inform Cat Crew Rescue if unable to do so
-
Inform Cat Crew Rescue when the cat seems ready for adoption, sharing information about the cat
-
Provide Cat Crew Rescue with electronic photos and/or videos of the cat to be used to promote for adoption.
