Foster a Pet
We are often in need of a temporary home for an animal for various reasons. Most commonly we need fosters for momma cats and their kittens.
We strive to find foster homes for community members who, due to some unforeseen crisis, need temporary housing for their animals. This program helps Windham County residents who face medical, housing, or other emergencies keep their animals long term by providing short term housing until the crisis passes.
We welcome interested people to put a foster application on file so that we can contact you when we have an animal that might match your household.
Potential foster families can identify which situations and animals they are interested in on their application.
The Windham County Humane Society provides all food, medicines, and medical care for animals in foster.
To foster a pet, please complete our foster care application below. After submitting an application, a staff member will be in touch to discuss next steps and to provide Orientation dates.
