Home for the Holidays

Give & receive the greatest gift there is by fostering a shelter pet this holiday season!

About:

This special program gives our shelter pets a chance to spend the holidays out of the shelter kennels and in warm and loving homes. Simply visit our shelter or either thrift store to pick out an adoptable dog or cat that you want to take home with you for the holidays!

Ultimately, we hope this seasonal fostering program will help find permanent homes for our shelter pets. This is a great opportunity for a "test run" with your family and other pets to see if you can provide a forever home for your foster. You can also introduce your foster to your friends, family, and neighbors to help facilitate an adoption. At the very least, it's an incredible opportunity to get our homeless pets out of the shelter for this special season!

Date and Time:

Pick-ups will begin at 10:30 a.m. on Dec. 5th at our shelter, 4100 SW Leighton Farm Ave., Palm City, or Stuart thrift stores, 3302 SE Federal Hwy and 1099 NW 21st St. Eligible pets must be one year or older.

We prefer that participants provide food bowls, bedding and toys for their foster pet, but the shelter will assist if needed. Any pets not adopted by their fosters or otherwise finding a forever home during the program will need to be returned to the shelter by 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 3.
