For many animals in our care, the shelter environment is not ideal. While we work hard to reduce fear, anxiety, and stress in our animals, some of them experience high levels of stress or have medical issues that require one-on-one care.

Finding long-lasting love can take time, but our foster caregivers provide our animals with safe, loving homes while they wait for their forever families. Atlanta Humane provides all food, supplies, and medical care for our animals in foster homes.

The animals listed below are in the highest need of a foster home. We’ve highlighted some of their specific requirements, but please click through to read more about each animal and then click the button below to let us know you’re interested in fostering. We hope you’ll consider giving one of these special animals a short-term place to stay!
