LaMa has many animals in need of temporary housing until they leave on transport to find their forever home at one of our partner rescues. Usually, the time period is 2-4 weeks but it varies dependent on the animal’s needs. You provide the TLC and LaMa provides the food, supplies, vet care, and any needed medications. As a foster, you will be required to take your fosters for veterinary care located in Springhill, LA and make sure you maintain a written record of their care and vaccinations. You will also provide them with socialization and keep a watchful eye over them to make sure they stay healthy. A separate area/room inside (bathroom, laundry room, or spare bedroom) should be used if you have other animals in the home during the initial quarantine period. LaMa requires that all our fosters fill out a foster application and take a volunteer training class. LaMa will also conduct a home visit to ensure the area in which you will house the animals, is suitable.
