With ‘kitten season’ in full swing, the Santa Rosa County Animal Shelter is looking for “medical fosters” who can help care for sick kittens that are not old enough to adopt. SRCAS says these kittens need a safe place to rest and recover until they are well and/or at least eight weeks old.

Medical fosters will be responsible for administering treatment, bringing fosters to shelter appointments, and providing a loving environment for recovery. Medical treatment and supplies are provided by the shelter, at no cost to the foster parent. For more information on fostering or to sign up to be a kitten foster, visit www.santarosa.fl.gov/727/Foster-Program.
