Attention animal lovers: Foster Parents needed for L.A. kittens!

by Katie

Thousands of animals are found running in the streets as a stray, and abandoned in Shelters in Los Angeles each year. Many can’t find homes, and end up being humanely euthanized. But with your help, you can make a difference, and save some lives.

Shelters across Los Angeles County are currently looking for volunteer foster parents to take care of abandoned newborn kittens. They are being bottle-fed, and need to be burped and watched over full-time, just like a newborn human baby.

If you live in the L.A. area, and would like to help out some baby kitties in need, please contact one of the following two people.

To volunteer with L.A. County, call Ken Kramer at (562) 256-1367.

To volunteer with the city of L.A., call Pat Ott at (213) 305-9068.

Not just the kitties need help though. There are thousands of animals in shelters waiting to find a place to call home: from dogs and cats, to even birds, rabbits, and reptiles. If you don’t want to adopt, but have the room in your home, and kindness in your heart to help an animal in need, please consider contacting your local animal shelter, humane society, or rescue group to become a foster parent. Most places will pay for all food and vet bills, and only require of you to look after and give some love to the animal in your care.

If you’d like to adopt, try checking out Petfinder.com. Animals from shelters and rescue groups all over the U.S. are listed there. Some looking temporary, and permanent homes.

Also please considering going to the Animal Rescue Site, and clicking on the button on the front page daily to provide 0.6 bowls of food and care for animals in shelters across the nation.
