Morris Animal Refuge - Animal Foster

Foster families allow our small animal shelter to expand by leaps and bounds. When you foster, you are at the forefront of saving lives by providing a home environment to an animal with unique and urgent needs, and by opening up a space in the shelter. Our population of animals in need of foster care varies, but we typically have kittens, cats, dogs, and occasionally puppies.

As a foster parent, you can care for puppies and kittens until they are old enough to be adopted, adult animals that need recovery time or medical attention, or animals that need socialization or a break from the stresses of a shelter environment.

If you’d like to join our dedicated community of fosters, please fill out our Foster Questionnaire and a staff member will contact you. We will complete foster counseling with you before you bring home your first MAR foster pet so that we can get to know each other and figure out which animals you can help us save! If you have any questions, you can contact us via email at foster@morrisanimalrefuge.org.
