Foster Families


TLC depends on our foster families to provide homes for our cats/kittens waiting for adoption or waiting to come into the Adoption Center. Volunteers agree to take a cat(s) into their home until adoption placement is made or there is room to bring the cat(s) into the Center. During this time, TLC provides for the all needs including; food, litter, and veterinary care. The foster family agrees to provide a loving environment and shelter during this time and to treat the pet as a member of their family.
