Foster Care Program
Our foster care providers are pre-screened volunteers who take cats and/or kittens into their homes after they have had their initial medical evaluation. Since kittens are extremely fragile, they do best under constant supervision in a home environment. Feral kittens have additional socialization needs in order for the general public to deem them adoptable.
MWHS provides food and medical care and the foster family provides time, love and socialization until the cats and kittens will be happy, healthy additions to their new families when they are adopted. Foster care providers also provide transportation to vet appointments and adoption hours.
Join our foster care program today! If you live in the MetroWest area and can provide a foster home, please download the foster home application form and return it to the shelter.
For more information, please contact: Mary O’Donnell-Ptak
MWHS is also working with the new Metrowest PetPantry to help pet owners who need assistance to feed and care for their animals. See their website http://www.metrowestpetpantry.org/ for more information and to register for assistance. Their website also includes instructions for donors.
