💌 Fostering

Interested in fostering? It’s a great way to provide temporary care for animals. Please note that pets under a stray hold cannot be fostered until their hold period ends.

📌 Please Note: Why We Do Not Place Adoption Holds

We operate on a first-come, first-served adoption basis and do not place holds on animals. Here’s why:

  • ❌ Missed Adoption Opportunities: Holds can cause animals to miss their chance at adoption if a family changes their mind. This slows down the process for pets who could have already found a home.
  • 🏥 Limited Veterinary Access: TLHS currently does not have an in-house veterinarian. This has slowed down the spay/neuter process, so we focus on adopting out animals who are already fixed and ensuring unaltered pets are spayed or neutered before going home.
  • 🐾 Prioritizing Ready-to-Adopt Pets: Many fully vetted pets are overlooked because of interest in unaltered animals based on color or breed. We want to give every ready pet the best chance at finding a family.
  • ⚡ Efficiency Saves Lives: By keeping adoptions moving quickly, we can free up space and resources to help more animals in need.

We appreciate your understanding as we work to ensure fair, efficient, and lifesaving adoptions for all pets in our care.
