Take a cat into your home and care for it as you would your own. This could be for a few days, weeks or months, whatever works for you.
Fosters often provide food and litter but, when donations are available, SaS will provide.
Vet bills are covered but must be arranged through. SaS uses donations to cover vet bills. Vet bills are covered as long as vet visit is approved by SaS coordinator.
At first, keep the cat in a separate room, usually a bathroom, laundry room or spare bedroom. Cats need a base camp to settle in. If you foster a kitten and keep it in a bathroom, be sure to keep the toilet seat down.
Most fosters take the cat(s) to vet visits and to meet potential adopters. If you can't, we work it out.
Cats are to be kept inside at all times.
