FOSTER AN ANIMAL

PAWS is able to help hundreds of cats and dogs find new homes each year because of the generosity of its foster families. You do not need professional experience to become a PAWS foster parent. All it takes is a loving heart, basic knowledge about the type of animal you will foster, good observation skills, and a desire to help companion animals.FOSTER AN ANIMAL
