Becoming a foster family for a stray animal
In order to reduce the stress experienced by lost animals, we invite you to keep the animal you have found in your home until they are claimed or adopted, rather than bringing them to the shelter. We will provide you with accessories, food and parasite prevention medication to help you temporarily care for the lost animal. The animal will be posted in the found animals section of our website to help their family find them, but if the family does not come forward within the legal timeframe to do so (i.e. within 24 to 72 hours), the animal will be vaccinated, sterilized and microchipped, then put up for adoption. If you wish to adopt the animal you have found and are able to meet their needs, you will be given priority among applicants.
If this option is of interest, please start by completing the found animal form, then contact us at prs@spcamontreal.com.
