Sometimes, due to many factors (age, size, medical or behavioral needs) we have animals who are overlooked at the shelter. In an effort to give some of our harder-to-place guests a chance, we are introducing a foster-to-adopt program at Cape Ann Animal Aid! We hope that by giving some of these dogs or cats a 2-week trial run, you may see the benefits of adopting one of these lovable animals and decide to make it permanent.
Foster-to-adopt animals are hand-picked by CAAA staff, and any animal not listed below is not eligible for our foster-to-adopt program. If you are interested in fostering to adopt one of the below animals, please fill out the application below.
Details:
- Foster-to-Adopt program gives families 2 weeks to decide if the animal they are fostering would be a good fit for their home
- Animal will be pulled off the website for 2 weeks to ensure there is no pressure on the family to decide before the deadline
- Some supplies may be borrowed from CAAA during foster period
- If at any point the living arrangement is not working out, you may bring your foster back to CAAA
- If you decide not to adopt but would like to continue to foster until your pet is adopted, you will be trained for the full adoption process for public adoptions
- Applications are approved as a typical adoption and are subject to all adoption policies and procedures
- Please Note: Due to isolation laws in different states, Foster-to-Adopt from CAAA is only available to MA residents. Foster-to-Adopt pets may not leave the state of Massachusetts at any time during the foster period.
