What is the goal of the foster program?
The Marin Humane Society’s Foster Program is devoted to at-risk animals with adoption potential. The program’s goal is to rehabilitate as many animals as the shelter can reasonably handle and to make them available for adoption. Nearly 60% of all the kittens adopted in 2000 were fostered first; 30% of all the adult cats spent some time in foster; and 10% of the dogs and 20% of the puppies benefited from what the Foster Program had to offer them. Being a foster parent is like being a grandparent all the enjoyment of playing with or raising animals without the lifetime responsibility! Please call (415) 506-6250.
