With an ever increasing number of animals coming to the RSPCA for a variety of reasons, we are always in need of volunteers who can open their homes to foster cats or rabbits.
The volunteer role of a fosterer is a crucial one and can make a huge difference to the rehabilitation of an animal and their chances of finding a forever home.
We try to rehome our animals as quickly as possible, but if they are involved in a prosecution case we could have them in our care for long periods.
Some animals need one-to-one care or perhaps don’t cope well in an animal centre environment and this is where our team of fantastic fosterers come in…
What does the role involve?
We will provide advice and all food, bedding, equipment and in the case of rabbits, appropriate accommodation to be sited in your garden.
There are two types of fostering role at the RSPCA:
- Fosterers for animals ready to be rehomed.
- Fosterers for case animals whilst the legal proceedings take place.
All fosterers are responsible for the welfare of the animal in their care and are a crucial part in the rehabilitation of the animal. If you are interested in fostering cats and/or rabbits, please download and complete the form below or email us at office@rspcasouthlondon.org.uk for more information.
We will then call you for a discussion about what exactly fostering entails for either cats or rabbits, and if you are still interested we will arrange a home visit to discuss further.
