Many of our animals don’t cope well within a kennel environment, some have come from situations where they may not have been well socialised with people or other animals, and others may never have experienced the care and affection they deserve.
In these situations, we know that quickly moving animals into a home environment is the best thing for them. Not only does it give them much needed love and affection, being on foster builds their confidence and can improve their health and wellbeing.
Fostering also allows us to learn more about the animal, meaning we can find them the most suitable permanent home, and also helps to free up space in our centres so we can rescue more animals that are in desperate need of our help.
