In Home FosteringHave you fostered animals before?What type, ages have you fostered?What animals can you foster?Up to eight weeks old, kittens who are “born feral” can be socialized. With close care and time, they can become affectionate and loving companions. ICAN has successfully socialized many, many feral kittens who have become loving, trusting adopted cats.Have you done this before?YesNoFeral Cat Trap/Neuter/Return program A feral cat is a member of the same species as pet cats who has never had contact with people or her contact with people has diminished over time. She is not socialized to people, cannot be touched and survives on her own or in colonies outdoors. Feral cats rapidly reproduce and their behaviours are not welcome in most populated areas. The typical response of inhumanely removing them does not work. TNR is the humane, effective approach for feral cats. They are humanely trapped, spayed or neutered, eartipped (the universal symbol of a neutered feral cat), and then returned to their outdoor home. Kittens are removed from the colony, spayed or neutered, socialized and adopted. Over time the population decreases.I have experience with TNR and would llike to do thisI do not have TNR experience but would consider it.
