In addition to our many adoptable cats and dogs, we also have pets in long-term foster care.
These pets often have medical needs such as hospice care for seniors, chronic conditions, or other special needs. They remain under the veterinary care and ownership of WOASH until they are either deemed adoptable or for the remainder of their lives, while living with their foster families. Many of these pets will stay with their foster families permanently.
Read about some of our long-term foster pets and consider donating to support their care!
Note: We place very few pets into long-term foster care, as it is financially challenging. These pets are continuously monitored by shelter staff for their needs.

McKee came to us when his previous owner passed away. McKee, a senior guy, also tested positive for Feline Leukemia (FeLV). This sweet boy has had some GI upset, and is on a prescription diet. He will remain in long-term foster due to being a senior guy with FeLV and GI needs. Monetary donations can be used to purchase McKee's prescription diet!

Tommy (pictured) and Miragia are two feral kitties who are living in foster care for socialization. These two are besties and their foster mom has made a kitty oasis to allow them to be comfortable, while still working to socialize them. Tommy and Miragia live in the same home as Pouncer! The favorite food of these two are the Fancy Feast Creamy Delights Salmon and Tiki Cat Seafood. They also prefer Tidy Cats Free and Clean litter.
