***NOTE***

Each animal in our program has gone through an assessment prior to being placed into a foster home. It's important to us that you, the other people in your household, and any other pets that may be in your household, are not uncomfortable or at risk at any time, as a result of taking on a foster for The Last Chance Cat Ranch. Fostering is usually for the time period the animal is in care up until adoption. Shorter foster situations are possible in some cases. The Last Chance Cat Ranch tries to avoid an animal being placed in several foster homes as this can cause stress, instability issues, and such. All costs involved (food, supplies, veterinarian) are covered by The Last Chance Cat Ranch; although some foster homes do supply food and treats as a form of donation.

Do you have any special circumstances or concerns?

Foster Contract

By agreeing to be a foster home for The Last Chance Cat Ranch, and upon approval (a copy of this signed
application will serve as confirmation), you the foster home are agreeing to these listed conditions:

The animal placed in your home requiring foster care belongs to The Last Chance Cat Ranch

You do NOT have permission to re-home, sell, trade, abandon/abuse/neglect the animal in any way, shape, or form. If you can no longer provide foster care for the animal you MUST immediately inform The Last Chance Cat Ranch

Before administering any veterinarian care and/or grooming services, The Last Chance Cat Ranch must approve the vet visit, treatment, or any other services provided by the vet clinic and/or groomer. IF YOU DO take the animal to a vet clinic/grooming service for any services without permission of The Last Chance Cat Ranch you yourself will be responsible for all costs associated to the visit/services rendered by veterinarian or groomer

Any cats named above HAVE NOT been adopted by the person(s) listed on this contract. Should the above named decide to adopt a cat they are fostering, adoption (upon approval) will be finalized with an adoption contract. Until time adoption is complete, the animal belongs to The Last Chance Cat Ranch and is only placed in the home (address above mentioned) temporarily.
