Free Cat Adoption Event!

Help save a life, become a foster today!

Going to the shelter is the best and worst part of rescue, I think.  It's really great being able to pull animals from death row into a foster home, where they will be safe and happy and go to a great forever home.  I LOVE being able to pull several dogs and cats at a time!

It's also incredibly sad, because we leave so many behind to face an uncertain fate.

This past Saturday, it was especially difficult.  Seeing kittens and puppies in the shelter always breaks my heart.  At the beginning of their life, they've already been abandoned, neglected or worse, mistreated.  There were SO many puppies and kittens there.  And we had to leave them behind, because there are never enough foster homes.

Even worse, at the moment, we don't have any foster homes that will take on puppies.

Fostering is so very rewarding.  Yes, it's hard when they are adopted.  But you know when they're adopted, that ARC has done everything in their power to make sure they're going to a great forever home.  When you become a foster for ARC, we pay for all of the medical procedures, and provide you monthly flea and heartworm preventative.  We provide collars and leashes for the dogs, and toys for the dogs and cats.  All we ask if that you provide a safe and loving home and food for your foster.

Won't you consider fostering?  Please contact us at Info@AdoptBay.com or 850-387-0224 if you live in the Bay County, Florida area and would like to foster.  Help us save more lives.

The puppies pictured here are all at Bay County Animal Control, waiting for an adopter or rescue to save them.  If you're interested in adopting them, please do.  BCAC is located at 6401 Bayline Drive, Panama City, FL.  Or give them a call at 850-767-3333.  The staff there is amazing and they work tirelessly to find these guys new homes or rescues.

I hope to hear from you soon.
