Open Your Heart & Home
We are 100% foster based and without volunteers willing to support our efforts we can't change the outcomes of these animals in need.
Becoming a foster is a generous and kind act that is rewarding and fulfilling. Foster homes help us as we work to find forever homes for our rescues.
What you need to know:
-
We will provide supplies: food, crate, leash, treats and other items as needed for the foster animal
-
We are responsible for all vet care while the animal is in foster. Foster animals are required to go to a Sarama Animal Rescue partner vet, and all appointments are made by the rescue and scheduled at a time convenient for the foster family.
-
The length of time an animal is in foster care varies. Animals can be in foster homes for a few days, weeks, months or even a year. Foster families can commit to any length of time they are comfortable with when fostering an animal. We request a minimum of two weeks’ notice before requesting to end a foster stay.
-
We will provide a trainer to assist with any behavioral concern or training need that may arise. We use only certified trainers to ensure the safety of our animals and foster caregivers. All training must be scheduled through the rescue.
Cats Who Need a Foster
Herbie
Age: 1 year old
Sex: Male
Herbie was rescued after he was found struggling to survive on the street in Philadelphia. He was adopted not too long after and had been happy, until his human died and Herbie was left alone in the house.
He came back to our rescue and has been in foster care ever since. Herbie is smart, silly, playful and charming. He loves toys, watching birds out the window and finding comfy beds for a cat nap.
While he’s very friendly with humans, he isn’t really a fan of other animals. He would do best in a single companion animal household.
Herbie is estimated to be 7 years old, neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and tested negative for FIV/flev. He’s currently on a prescription diet to prevent crystals but has no other known health concerns. He’s a happy cat who just needs a home and someone to live him.

Foxy
Age: Adult
Sex: Female
If you are looking for someone to keep you company and maybe be your personal assistant, Foxy is for you.
Foxy is very nosy and likes to be involved in whatever we are doing. She loves toys, being petted and will follow you around. She gets along well with the other cats & dogs in her current foster home.
Foxy is spayed, vaccinated, tested negative for FIV/felv and microchipped.
Foxy is currently on a special diet to help with her sensitive stomach.
Foxy is available for adoption or foster.
Reigna
Age: 8 years old
Sex: Female
Reigna is the sweetest girl you will ever meet.
Reigna started as an outreach cat but was surrendered to our rescue when her owner lost her home. When we first met Reigna in 2020, she couldn't be spayed due to a 4/6 heart murmur. Her owner intended to follow up with a cardiology visit but was unable to. When Reigna came into our care we learned that she was pregnant and on July 1st she gave birth to one kitten.
From the start Reigna has been very affectionate with her foster parents. She constantly follows them around asking for pets and to be held.
Reigna had an initial vet visit in July and has a cardiology consultation scheduled for October.
Currently Reigna is in a foster home with cats and dogs and does well with most of them. Even though she is 8 years old, Reigna is very playful and sometimes the other foster cats in the home don't understand her energy.
She would do well in a foster home that can give her a lot of attention and a lot of toys to play with.
Dogs Who Need a Foster
Bean
Age: 4 years old
Sex: Male
Breed: Pit Bull Terrior Mix
Poor Bean is pretty scared of everything and being in a kennel environment is not the best thing for him.
When he met a behaviorist, he was much more relaxed and social than we anticipated. Which made us happy! She adjusted his anxiety meds so help him cope in the kennel but we really need to get this boy out into a foster home ASAP.
Bean is neutered and up to date with vaccines.
He needs a quiet home with someone who will give him time to decompress and help him feel comfortable. He loves treats, toys and napping in bed.
He’s generally good walking on a leash in areas where there aren’t a lot of people or other dogs. If you live near nature trails, that’s a plus!
Right now we are looking for a home with no other dogs or cats for Bean
