Foster to Adopt Application

In some cases, animals with particular medical or behavioural needs will be offered to suitable homes on a foster-to-adopt arrangement. This means that the animal needing a new home will be placed with a suitable family on a foster care arrangement, which will include assistance from RSPCA WA behaviour specialists and medical staff.

Once the animal, and the family, are happy and settled, the formal adoption process will take place, transferring ownership to the new family.

This Foster-to-Adopt arrangement is one way we can give animals the best chance possible of finding a permanent loving home.
