Fostering 4 Rock Stars
Does your kitten foster program need a little TLC? Are you ready to start your very first foster program? Then you’re in the right place!
Cat Adoption Team has a rockin’ kitten foster program—and we want you to have one too!
Our unique kitten foster program is nationally recognized as a lifesaving model that’s worth repeating. So we put all of our resources down on paper just for you. We call it Fostering 4 Rock Stars because we know you’ll feel like a rock star when your foster program is saving more lives!
Ready to learn how to start (or improve) a kitten foster program at your own organization? The resource below will help you get started. You can also take the Maddie’s University Fostering 4 Rock Stars Self-Paced Course or watch the Fostering 4 Rock Stars webinar for even more support!
Check back later this year to get dates for the live, instructor-led Fostering 4 Rock Stars course coming in Fall 2024 at Maddie’s University.
