Animal Care Services
Foster a Pet
Thank you for your interest in helping Corpus Christi Animal Services by fostering a pet in need! Fostering not only supports the shelter animal you take in, but it also frees up space in our shelter for us to rescue even more animals.
Animal Care Services Time Commitments:
Fostering can last anywhere from just a weekend to several weeks or even a few months, depending on your availability and the needs of the pet.
Become a Foster & Learn More!
Types of Shelter Pets That Need Fostering:
- Adult dogs and cats looking for temporary shelter breaks (from a few days to several months).
- Animals with special behavioral needs that require foster care for training (typically one week or longer).
- Adorable kittens and puppies that are too young to adopt.
You can chose the type of pet that you would like to foster. CCACS provides everything you need while caring for your foster pet! Food, litter, kennel, bowls, toys, etc.
You must be at least 18 years old to foster. To apply to be a foster home for CCACS, please fill out the Foster Home Application.
For more information, email foster@@cctexas.com.
We can’t wait for you to join our foster family!
