YOU CAN SAVE LIVES TODAY BY BECOMING A FOSTER PARENT

During the spring and fall, we take in hundreds of kittens and puppies, most of them that are too young to be away from their mothers and are too small to stay in the shelter. The Short Term Foster Program was created in 2010 to save these precious little lives and many other animals that need special attention during medical treatment. Since then, roughly 500 unweaned puppies and kittens have been saved. Only with your love and commitment, we can save more with the years to come. Please consider becoming a Short Term Foster Parent today!

What we do:
Most animals are fostered for a duration between 2-6weeks
We provide necessary medications, vaccines and dewormers
Once they are healthy and old enough, they will be altered and placed on the adoption floor
Foster parents are given first consideration in adopting, if you happen to fall in love

What you do:
Make sure your personal pets are up to date on vaccines, preventions and they are spayed or neutered
Be sure you have an area to keep your foster animal(s) completely separated from your personal pets (such as a spare bedroom, laundry room, ect)
If you are a renter, please be sure your landlord doesn’t mind you fostering and bring a signed statement
Fill out an application!

Give them a fighting chance, a fresh start and become a foster parent today!

Please email Ashley at ashleyfrwspca@hotmail.com, or stop by the shelter to pick up an application and start saving lives!

WE ARE IN DIRE NEED OF

FOSTER HOMES!!!!!!!!

A poem to my foster dog
by Diane Morgan

I am the bridge Between what was and what can be. I am the pathway to a new life.

I am made of mush, Because my heart melted when I saw you, Matted and sore, limping, depressed, Lonely, unwanted, afraid to love.

For one little time you are mine. I will feed you with my own hand I will love you with my whole heart I will make you whole.

I am made of steel. Because when the time comes, When you are well, and sleek, When your eyes shine, And your tail wags with joy Then comes the hard part. I will let you go--not without a tear, But without a regret. For you are safe forever-- A new dog needs me now.

Make a difference and call Patti Kiraly at 843-873-5918 or e-mail tkiraly@sc.rr.com for an application for long term foster care.

Heartworms and injuries...too many!!
The  Frances Willis wants to give those a chance who  have injuries or diseases which wouldn't affect their quality of  life. But we need you and your help

When the community gives to the Foster Medical Fund, one hundred percent (100% ) of the money goes towards the treatment of the animals. We could not continue this program without the generosity of the animal lovers in the community. To make a donation to the Foster Medical Fund, mail your contribution to:

 Alleviate the financial stress associated with your pet’s unexpected medical expenses and generate funds for our shelter at the same time!

Simply apply for a ShelterCare Pet Insurance Program by using the ShelterCare banner-link  above.

Here’s how it works: ShelterCare Pet Insurance Programs cover you when your pet needs essential veterinary care from an illness or injury.

Also, every time a completed application for a ShelterCare program is generated through our shelter’s website, we automatically receive a

$25 donation to help cover common needs like blankets, litter and food. This donation is of no cost to you and provides us with essential funds.

Make the right move and enroll today!
