BENSALEM TOWNSHIP, PA \u2014 The Women’s Animal Center is expressing an “urgent need” to find foster parents to help bottle-feed shelter kittens who are newborns to less than six weeks old.<\/p>\n
America’s oldest animal shelter is seeking “Kitten Foster Volunteers” to care for kittens too young for adoption in their homes until they are ready to be adopted into loving forever homes, officials said.<\/p>\n
Officials said that fosters will need to be able to provide a separate room or space from any of their own animals, as well as transportation to and from the Women\u2019s Animal Center for necessary medical treatment. <\/p>\n
Additionally, foster volunteers must live in Pennsylvania within a 20-mile radius of the Women\u2019s Animal Center.<\/p>\n
The center will provide a training session to help volunteers be successful foster parents as well as a “Foster Starter Kit” with kitten care supplies. No experience is necessary. <\/p>\n
