Why foster?We can't save cats and dogs without foster homes. It's that simple! Since we don't have our own facility, we rely on foster parents to care for our animals until they are adopted. Foster parents help us learn more about a cat or dog's behavior, training level, and personality so that we can match them with the right forever home.
Commitment We request that you commit to a minimum of two weeks but prefer if you can foster until adoption. This time period varies but averages about two months. What Does a Foster Do? As a foster parent, you provide a home, food, bed and TLC. We ask that you bring your foster dog to at least two adoption events per month. We also host cat adoption events from time to time. City Dogs Rescue & City Kitties pays for all pre-approved vetting during the foster period and provides basic supplies (including a collar, harness, leash and crate for dogs). Your foster dog or kitty provides lots of love, tail wags, snuggles, and kisses! Are you convinced yet? Please note: City Dogs Rescue & City Kitties adopters are already pre-approved to foster. If you want to foster a dog, email foster@citydogsrescuedc.org. If you want to foster a cat, email citykittiesdc@gmail.com
*If you need to return your CDR&CK cat or dog, please contact info@citydogsrescuedc.org.
