foster a cat or dog

     Animal shelters and rescue organizations often need a temporary home for a cat or dog. They call it a foster home, or fostering an animal. You keep the animal until a permanent home is found for it. If it needs a veterinarian, the animal shelter or rescue will take care of it. Fostering keeps animal out of shelters. Animals who have been stray can get used to living in a home. Animals who have been abused can learn to trust people.
     Animal shelters euthanize millions of cats and dogs every year. Fostering solves the problem. It can be a rewarding experience. A new kitten is fond of you almost instantly.  When a foster cat hides for weeks, it's a big moment when it finally approaches you.
