They say taking a pet out of the cold shelter, even if just for a short while, can be very beneficial to their lives.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Here are some ways El Paso Animal Services says fostering can help a pet:<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Many shelter pets do not know how to live in a home properly, and fostering helps them learn.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">A pet who\u2019s gone on foster can increase their likelihood of being adopted, since they may become house-trained and learn boundaries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">You can choose to foster for a minimum of 4 weeks, or extend your contract as you\u2019d like!<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Most supplies are provided by us! As supplies last, we will hand them out to our fosters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">It\u2019s completely free! All that\u2019s needed is a valid photo ID, to be 18 years of age or older, and to live within El Paso!<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Animal Services and KTSM are ready to help you find your perfect match.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">For more information on adoptions and events you can attend in your area, you can always visit\u00a0the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/elpasoanimalservices.org\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:El Paso Animal Services online;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">El Paso Animal Services online<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
