Hello there!

There is good reason why your friend sent you to this page… they think you would make a great foster carer.

Right now at Ten Lives we desperately need new foster carers for the upcoming kitten season.

We need YOU to become a Ten Lives foster carer.

– Georgie Gallagher, Foster Coordinator

Why foster caring is so important

The Ten Lives Cat Centre’s foster care program is an essential part of our work looking after our kitties.

  • You don’t have to foster all the time – you let us know what suits you. Fostering even for a short time – a week or two – helps with our vital work of caring for our kitties.
  • Foster carers volunteer to care for kitties in their own home until the cats are ready for adoption, at which point they are returned to the Ten Lives Cat Centre.
  • Foster carers do an incredible job helping our kitties become confident and playful, or in some cases providing the love and care they need to get back to health.
  • You are never alone as we provide complete support and information. We also provide all veterinarian services.
  • It is a great way to spend time with cats for people who aren’t able to make the long term commitment that adoption requires.
  • Our foster carers talk of the joy and reward they find in caring for a cat and seeing them find their own forever home.

Fostering is a truly wonderful experience which is extremely rewarding for you and lifesaving for the cats or kittens you care for.

Fostering allows you to experience a huge range of emotions and have a lot of fun, whilst offering a nurturing environment for our cats or kittens.

Some of the reasons our kitties need foster care before they can be adopted are:

  • Shy or timid
  • Too young
  • Illness
