Foster Program
It all begins with you!
We rely solely on our fosters. You are the most important part of our rescue. You provide love and shelter to animals in need. For some animals you may be their last chance. For some animals you may be their first wonderful human experience.
Fostering is providing care for a pet that is currently in the possession of the rescue. You take care of your foster pet as though it were your own until we find the animal the right long-term, stable forever home. The more committed foster homes we have, the more lives we can save.
Coal Country Animal Rescue provides all the supplies needed to foster.
There are many wonderful reasons to become a foster parent to a rescue dog or cat in need:
Privilege of offering a needy animal a safe, comforting and supportive environment while he/she waits to be adopted, or reunited with family following an emergency.
Help socialize a rescue pet to enhance his/her adoption potential.
Reduce the animal’s stress, which improves his/her adoptability.
Enjoy the benefits of pet ownership if you are unable to keep a full-time pet due to lifestyle or other restrictions
