Foster parents provide temporary homes for animals prior to adoption. Providing foster care is a wonderful and personal way to contribute to saving and improving the lives of homeless pets.

At The Humane Society of Greater Kansas City our goal is to keep animals in their homes, and to help animals if they need temporary placement prior to finding their forever home.  Sometimes we receive animals that need more care than what we can provide in the shelter environment — bottle baby kittens are an example of the type of animals that would do better in a foster home versus the shelter.  Becoming a foster parent allows us to extend our reach to help more animals.

When fostering for HSGKC, all supplies are provided, medical care is provided at our clinic and our Volunteer/Foster Coordinator will answer all the questions you have.
