Thank you so much for your interest in fostering for the Animal Protection Society - Friday Harbor (APS-FH)! Fostering helps save lives and keep pets out of the stressful shelter environment, while they wait for their new homes.
APS-FH's Foster Care Program places orphaned, pregnant, newborn, injured, sick, and under-socialized animals into private homes for temporary housing. Some of the shelter's most vulnerable residents benefit tremendously from foster care, which provides them with time outside of the shelter for recovery from an illness or injury, or to receive extra attention and socialization. Foster care can also give us an opportunity to learn more about the animals in our care by giving us a glimpse into how they behave in a house setting or with a transition into a home environment (as they will experience upon adoption The Foster Care Program also allows us to help more animals than we have room to house in our brick-and-mortar facility. APS-FH provides necessary equipment, supplies, medical care, and support for all our foster pets, while the foster parent(s) responsibility is to provide the care, love and support needed for each pet that comes through their door. As foster parents we ask you to commit to following our foster care guidelines and attend any required training that is needed or recommended for providing exceptional care for our shelter pets.
Please fill out the following questionnaire honestly and accurately. If you have any questions about our program, do not hesitate to ask! We are grateful for your interest in helping support pets in need.
