RED BLUFF HIGH SCHOOL Bo ar d to h ol d sp ec ia l meeting regarding firearms Last week I discussed the importance of spaying and neutering pets. Unfor- tunately, as a direct re- sult of ani- mals not be- ing steril- ized, a large number of offspring are born with no one to take care of them. At the Te- hama County Animal Care Center, the ability to take in these abandoned ani- mals is directly dependent on the number of reliable fosters they have to help. The more fosters available, the more lives that can be saved. March is just around the corner and "kitten sea- son" is about to begin. All of us involved are truly anx- ious, knowing that these bundles of fur will pour in all at once and resources will quickly become over- whelmed. Finding enough fos- ters is often a difficult en- deavor. One of the reasons is that people are often fear- ful it will be difficult to let go once there is an emo- tional attachment. While it is hard to bring a first foster back to the shelter, remem- ber that they are now ready, because of your efforts, for loving, permanent homes. Fostering really does save lives. When you foster a homeless animal, you are giving that animal a much greater chance for survival. The babies do poorly in a shelter environment and, as diligently as everyone tries, many die. Fosters are the kind people who open their hearts and homes, insuring these infants have a good chance to survive. There- fore we are imploring you, before kitten season begins, to consider joining the Te- hama County Animal Care Center Foster program. If you would like to learn more about it, please con- tact Christine McClintock, manager at 527-3439. Often, other animals may also require fostering. Those typically fostered at the Tehama County Ani- mal Care Center are dogs and cats. They can be adults, orphans or moms that are either pregnant or who are nursing their new- borns. In addition, the an- imals may be ill, injured or just need a place to re- cover from a recent sur- gery. I cannot state it of- ten enough, whether you only foster once or de- cide to do it frequently you will know that, because of your efforts, an animal was helped through a difficult period in its life. When thinking about be- coming a foster be aware that it is a commitment, not only to the organization for which you are foster- ing, but also to the animal's well-being. Because the an- imal will be a part of your home, it is important that all family members are sup- portive. Additionally, con- sider how much time you have available. Depending upon circumstances, fos- tering may take anywhere from a couple of weeks to a few months. If you already have pets at home, consider that you might have to keep them separated from the foster animal. Also, be hon- est regarding skill level and experience. Since the ulti- mate goal is to insure the animal's health and well-be- ing, the Center will need to know your abilities when placing the animal. Be aware though, they will as- sist and guide you while fos- tering. In addition, the Cen- ter provides all food, sup- plies, veterinary care, etc., so there is essentially no cost to a foster. Basic requirements fos- ters are expected to pro- vide include a nurturing en- vironment, appropriate nu- trition, suitable shelter and adequate exercise. In ad- dition to providing the ba- sics, fosters may be asked to transport the animals to veterinary appointments, adoption events, etc. Fosters are crucial in re- habilitation situations. By assisting an animal in re- covery, and providing it with a nurturing home venue, fostering helps in- crease the chance of a suc- cessful move into a perma- nent home. With regard to orphans, fosters become the surrogate parent, pro- viding the care necessary for those too young to func- tion on their own. By pro- viding these babies nutri- tion, socialization, and basic training during their for- mative first eight weeks of life, fosters help to ensure the health and survival of the animal. While fosters are needed for orphans under 8 weeks of age, pregnant or nursing moms, animals requiring either medical treatment or a place to recover from sur- gery, it does not mean you are required to be a fos- ter in every situation. The choice is yours. For some, cats and kittens are easier to foster, because they do not need the space or time that dogs and puppies re- quire. For others, the pref- erence might be small or older dogs. Fosters are an amazing group of caring people who provide care, safety and most of all, love. In addition to the benefits that both hu- mans and pets receive from fostering, removing one an- imal from the shelter makes room for another home- less creature. So, please se- riously consider joining us and fostering. We and the animals will be grateful. RonnieCaseyisvice president of PETS — Providing Essentials for Tehama Shelter.
