Become a Permanent Foster
From time to time, the Parma Animal Shelter takes in kittens and cats that will need ongoing veterinary care. It is possible to take one of these felines home as part of our permanent foster program. As a permanent foster, you provide basic supplies (regular food, litter, etc.) and love, and the shelter pays for the medical care of the animal. Some of these animals require daily medication or frequent trips to our veterinarian for procedures – each situation is unique. If you would like to permanently foster one of our special needs cats or kittens, please email catadoptions@parmashelter.org.
