Opportunities From: Humane Society of Greater Niagara

Volunteer: Cat Fostering

As a foster parent you are opening up your home to those in need of some extra TLC.

Our UFR program benefits the small percentage of cats that enter the shelter that are so traumatized that they become feral-like and defensively aggressive. These former pets have had to revert to their natural instincts to survive their stray experience and have lost their trust in humans.

Our UFR group works with these cats to domesticate them so that the cats are able to eventually make their way up for adoption. Sometimes it takes days, but most times it takes weeks or even months. The success rate has been very high! Nearly 100 of our UFR cats have been adopted as pets in the last two years.

Our Queens and Kittens foster program is designed for the mamas and their kittens and often times kittens that come in to the shelter on their own a safe, quiet place to be able to destress and grow until they are ready to go up for adoption
