Ways to Volunteer

Foster Care

The animals that the Wiregrass Humane Society accepts are not always immediately ready for adoption. Until they are ready to go home with a new family, Foster Care Volunteers take them into their homes and care for them. Some situations where foster care is needed would be;

- pregnant females,
- nursing mothers and their infants,
- orphan puppies or kittens,
- dogs undergoing treatments for heartworms,
- abused, fearful animals who need to learn to trust.

Foster Care Volunteers need to have adequate facilities and no animals of their own, or pets that are very tolerant of newcomers.

If you would like more information regarding our foster care program, please contact our shelter manager at 334-792-6693.
