Our Foster Program

We are in desperate need of loving foster homes for our rescued cats and kittens.

 

If you are located in O'ahu, please consider providing a temporary home to a cat in need! 

All fosters need is a safe and loving environment- we provide the rest!

Fostering FAQ

01

How do I know if I should foster a cat? 

Fostering kittens/cats is a very rewarding experience. Fosterers need to provide their foster cats with a clean, safe, and loving environment until they can be adopted. 

This sometimes includes giving medications, taking them to vet appointments, and keeping them separate from your other pets for 2+ weeks. 

If you can do these things, you should totally foster!

03

What kind of cats need fostering?

Young kittens awaiting vaccines, spay/neuter, or who are recovering from illness often need a safe and loving environment before they are adoptable. Young kittens can be quite fragile and require more time and attention. 

We also have adult stray cats who have been rescued or surrendered. Oftentimes, these cats are perfectly healthy and social, and just need a place to decompress and wait for their furrever home. For first time cat fosters, an adult cat may be more suitable. 

02

How do I prepare?

If you are approved, we recommend setting up a space to foster. This can be a guest bedroom, an office, a bathroom, or even a playpen in the corner! Although we can provide many of the necessary supplies, you may want to stock up on toys, food, litter, and cleaning supplies. 

04

What if I get attached?

Getting attached to your foster cat is completely normal. After spending so much time and energy caring for an animal, it's only natural to develop love for it. 

It's important to remember that when we foster, adoption is always the end-goal. If you become interested in adopting your foster cat, you can absolutely apply to adopt! 

Foster Care Responsibilities

We can provide basic supplies such as food and litter, and will cover the costs of approved vet care.

As a foster parent, you are responsible for the following: 

  • Providing a safe, clean, and loving environment. 

  • Providing affection, playtime, and socialization. 

  • Regularly feeding, watering, and changing the litter box. 

  • Transporting kittens to adoption events or occasional vet appointments. 

  • Taking cute pictures for us to update their adoption profiles.
