Foster Care Handbook



  • NMAF does not have a shelter and relies on foster homes to provide temporary care for our dogs and cats
  • By fostering a pet, you become the decisive factor in saving the life of an abandoned cat or dog
  • Fostering is a short-term and temporary commitment, and your help gives these wonderful pets a much better chance of getting adopted and finding their forever homes
  • The love, affection, socialization, training, exercise and playtime you provide will make a difference that will affect your foster pet for the rest of his or her life
  • NMAF covers veterinary costs for fostered animals and can often help by providing you with necessary equipment such as a crate, pet bed, litter box, etc.
