Interested in Fostering?
Fostering is a providing a temporary home for animals in need.
It changes the lives of our rescues by giving them the time, care and love needed on their journey to finding their forever homes.
Read through the points below and reach out to the team if fostering with Moggies sounds like a good fit for you.
Time
Often our rescue animals need rehabilitation, the time needed for which will be case by case.
Sick animals will need transport to the vets and confidence with administering medication.
Our unsocialised babies (wildies) will need patience, kindness, and above all, love.
We ask our fosters to commit to a minimum foster period of 2 weeks or until their foster litter is adopted.
Space
Can you provide a separate space to put a playpen or crate to settle in our fosters kittens? Spare rooms are ideal!
Once settled, the goal is to socialise cats/kittens with the family lifestyle so exposure to everyday routines are encouraged.
Our kittens are fostered indoors so we can keep them warm, dry and comfortable.
Supplies
A basic set up of a litterbox, bowls, playpen, toys and bedding are always available to fosters.
Flea/worm treatments and vet bills are covered!
Food is provided and we'll help out where we can with litter.
The more you're comfortable with supplying yourself the more we can put towards helping others
Community
Becoming a foster parent means joining the Moggies family. We'll do our best to look after you so you can look after the Moggies!
Experience with fostering isn't necessary, you can learn the skills you need as you go.
Communication is key. All we ask is that there's the ability to communicate if we need to touch base.
