IS FOSTERINGRIGHT FOR YOU?

Please take a few moments now and askyourself: “Does fostering an animal fit myhousehold and my life?”

The health and welfare of all individuals inyour home – human and animal – must beconsidered before bringing a creature intothe mix. Fostering a homeless pet shouldnever be considered unless your homeenvironment is happy, safe, healthy andspacious enough to nurture the foster petadequately and retain sanity among theexisting members of your home. If any ofyour family membersare contending withallergies, excessivestress, other physicalor mental healthi s s u e s , c a r e e rinstability, financiald i f f i c u l t i e s , o rhousing or spacerestrictions, fosteringis not a good optionfor you at this time.But if you believe youhave the ability tofoster, and the entirehousehold agreesthat fostering wouldb e a p o s i t i v eexperience, your nextquestion should be:“Do I have the time?”

Fostering a shelter pet is a 24/7 job.Although you may not be physicallyinteracting with the animal every second ofthe day, you will be responsible round theclock for the pet's safety, comfort, andgeneral well-being, and this responsibilityalone can be exhausting. If your work orfamily schedule is already so hectic thatadding another t ime-consumingresponsibility will only create more stress,do not consider fostering at this time. If thatnew foster dog will spend long periods oftime in his crate – periods that frequentlyapproach or exceed the eight-hourthreshold – or if you've killed yourumpteenth houseplant because you just

haven't had time to water it, you'll want toput those foster dreams on hold for now.The amount of personal attention neededwill vary greatly from animal to animal, butyou can expect to spend anywhere fromthree to seven hours a day interacting with afoster pet, and even more if you're planningto foster puppies or kittens. Teaching dogsor cats the lessons they will need to becomehappy, thriving, lifelong members ofanother family is the essence of fostering,and this takes time and patience.

You may also want to ask yourself: “Am Iprepared to say goodbye?”Some foster animals may be with theirfoster families for days, or even months,

before they are readyto return to the shelter,or are adopted intotheir forever home. It isi m p o r t a n t t or e m e m b e r t h a tfostering should notbe viewed as a “trialadoption”. Anyonewho fosters must berealistic about theexpected outcome:that the animal will beadopted by anotherfamily. While it isimpossible not tobecome attached toyour sweet dog or catliving in your home, it'snecessary to keep youroriginal goals in mind

and remain committed to finding theanimal a new family. Think of it this way: Foreach pet who is adopted by his foster family,one fewer “foster opportunity” exists, whichtranslates into fewer animals being given awonderful chance at life in a real home. Ifyou find it hard to say goodbye, imaginehow happy your foster pet will be in his orher new home – and remember how youhelped make that happen.

If you would consider becoming a fosterparent, please contact Lakeshore HumaneSociety. If you have ANY questions, pleasedon't hesitate to contact LHS!

Dear Friends of the LHS

This last quarter, the Board of Directorscreated action plans to accomplish fourkey strategic objectives identified in anearlier brainstorming session:

• Hire a Director of Operations• Improve LHS Operations• Decrease Days of Care• Increase Presence in the Community

I would like to share with you details ofthe plan to decrease the number of daysan animal is in the care of LHS (aka“Velocity”). Increasing the velocity ofanimals moving through the facility willdecrease stress on the animals andoperating costs.

LHS goals are:

• Decrease Average Days in Care from69.2 to 30 days overall (81.5 to 40days for cats and 46 to 20 days fordogs)

• Reduce average daily cat populationfrom over 100 to 65

• Increase average cat adoptions permonth from 52 to 65

LHS will meet these goals by:

• Streamlining the adoptions protocols• Decreasing stress on cats• Creating a Fast-Track Adoption process

Giving cats a place to hide can helpreduce stress. According to theAssociation of Shelter VeterinariansGuidelines for Standards of Care, onestudy found that the ability to hide led todecreased stress hormones in cats(Carlstead 1993).

Stress hormones (i.e. cortisol) can causesuppression of the immune system.

Reconfiguring existing LHS cat housing(connecting two cages via a PVC portalhole) will offer cats:

• A hiding place inside their housing• An elevated perch• A separate area for their bathroom from

their food, water & sleeping place

LHS will start implementing these plansover the next quarter and continue onthroughout the year.

has already started andthey are already arriving at the shelter.Foster homes are needed to care for theorphaned kittens until they are 2 monthsold before they can be relocated to theirforever home.

, Dr. Andrea Carroll for yourpledge to match animal sponsorships.Through your generosity and that of 42other individuals, 84 total animaladoption fees have been reduced and 39animals have found forever homes.

, we are half way there.

There will be a survey in the next (June)edition of Wags & Whiskers asking foryour view of how LHS is serving thecommunity. Please take time to completeit. Your input is greatly appreciated.

If you have any questions or concernsabout the content of this editorial, I wouldlove to talk with you. Please call the shelterand leave a message for me.

President, LHS Board of Directors

(According to Erica Smedberg, DVM,Shelter Veterinarian at Dane CountyHumane Society).

EDUCATION

Sheila loves to talk. She's a

long haired beauty who is

front declawed. She was

found lost and was never

reclaimed. She's getting

lonely and longs for a home to

roam and a warm lap to lay

on.

Magic has been in the shelter

since late August. He's a

super affectionate kitty who is

patiently waiting for his family

to take him home. He has

lived with other cats &

answers to his name. Stop in

and visit him in the lobby. He's

lonely and waiting for you.

Tiger Lilly is a very sweet

declawed Dilute Calico. She

would like to remind everyone

that she's not the only kitty in

the shelter already declawed.

She and her friends all would

love forever homes. Stop in

to find your new declawed

friend. No additional adoption

fee is required to adopt an

already declawed cat.

Latisha is a very friendly

tortishell girl. She gets along

with other cats and loves

snuggling with her people

friends. She is current on

shots and spayed. Stop into

the Purple Colony room to get

some of her unconditional

love. She (& all) adopted pets

will be microchiped before

they go home.

This is Karma. She is looking

for an active home full of

snuggles and love. She LOVES

walks and her favorite human

handlers. She gives kisses to

those she loves. She will excel

in a home without cats or

bunnies and that will take her

to obedience training. Stop in

to the shelter to see her.

Meet Hunter; he's all Beagle

through and through. His

walks are led by his nose and

he loves a good snuggle, ear

scratch and treat when he's

done. He would be happiest

as an only dog with someone

who likes meandering walks.

Stop by to say “Hi” and see if

he could be your new best

friend. He will be waiting.

Geronimo came in to us after

being hit by a motorcycle. He

is a survivor. He's fully

recovered and is a super

sweet big boy who loves being

petted, giving kisses and likes

taking long walks. He's

current on shots and

neutered, come in and see

him for yourself.

This is Taylor, she's a friendly

younger Border collie/Terrier

mix, we think. She LOVES the

friends she makes, although

she is a bit shy at first around

some men. She likes walks

and Loves runs. She has a lot

of energy and would do well

in a home with older kids or

active humans. Stop by today

to see Taylor and make a

friend for life.
