Our Foster to Adopt program focuses on empowering potential adopters to welcome an animal into their home straight off of a transport or out of a shelter.

You will have CHR’s support through the fostering process and will get to be first in line to adopt your foster. When you are approved to foster to adopt you will be noted as both an approved foster and approved adopter meaning that you can have the flexibility to continue to foster even after you adopt,

As a FTA candidate, you will have 14 days after the transport to decide whether you would like to adopt. After that period, you will relinquish your status as first in line to adopt your foster. If you decide your foster isn’t the right fit with your lifestyle,  we will post your foster as adoptable and process applications (that are qualified and a good fit for the animal) as they come in. After the the 14 day grace period, if you then decide you would like to adopt you would be sent the adoption agreement to sign and finalize the adoption fee.

At anytime you feel 100% certain during the foster-to-adopt period you want to adopt and in order to finalize the adoption please inform your foster support and we will start the adoption process.

CHR will cover all approved vet visits while in foster care. We are also able to provide many basic supplies from within our volunteer and foster network (food, dewormer, martingale collar etc.).
