Michelle's Kitten Rescue Foster Form

Thank you for your interest in fostering with Michelle’s Kitten Rescue!


Fosters are the heart of our rescue — without you, we simply couldn’t save the vulnerable kittens and cats that need us most.

Whether you’re brand new to fostering or have years of experience, our team provides guidance, supplies, and ongoing support every step of the way. We carefully match fosters based on comfort level, home environment, and experience — many of our fosters start with just one kitten!

This application helps us get to know you and ensure a safe, successful foster experience for both you and the animals in your care. If you have questions at any point, please reach out — we’re happy to help.
