Help Our Local Animal
Shelter
Fostering is a very tangible way to make a difference. Everyone
benefits: The foster volunteer gets to spend time with a special
animal. The foster dog or cat gets a break from kennel life and a
second chance at becoming a cherished pet. The new owners get a pet
that is better adapted to home life, and therefore has a better
chance of remaining in the new home permanently. If you have a big
heart and a little extra time that you can spare it will give you a
sense of joy unlike any other. Please consider making a difference
in the life of a shelter pet. If you are interested in becoming a
foster home, contact Amador County Animal Control at 223-6378.
