Can you help animals in need? Minneapolis Animal Care & Control has launched its new animal foster program, giving the public the opportunity to volunteer to temporarily provide animals extra care, attention and homes.
Fosters are a great way to provide animals with care, play, exercise and socialization. Animals that are placed with volunteers in the foster program may include:
- Those too young or small for adoption.
- Those recovering from surgery or illness.
- Those who need temporary housing due to domestic violence situations.
- Those experiencing temporary displacement from an emergency or natural disaster.
- And animals who could use a break from the shelter environment.
Applicants must be willing to commit to housing an animal, and have the ability to get to and from Minneapolis Animal Care & Control, 212 17th Ave. N., Minneapolis. Staff will contact applicants after their application is reviewed to discuss the program, and will work with you to provide the best matches possible.
