    Posted 10-15-2019 09:08 AM

    We are looking for low cost foster training videos that include "do's and don'ts" for our foster based rescue.  Topics to include decompression, introducing other pets, etc.

    Here's a video from Maddie's and CatTown about bringing home your first foster cat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-ZcYXmkvjY&fbclid=\

    Maddie's Fund has a whole bunch of these here: https://www.maddiesfund.org/flash-classes.htm. I especially like the one about bringing shy fosters home.

    I am in the process of developing an online foster training program designed to make fostering easier on the fosters and the shelter and to create better outcomes for the animals. We are slowly adding resources and you can sign up to receive updates, if you're interested. https://worldreadypets.com/

    If anyone reading this has certain topics they feel need to be addressed or any questions, feel free to ask.

    Not sure if these would help but a few years ago I made a series of 3 one minute long 'How Fostering Works' videos since I saw so much confusion on social media about it.  If you want to add them to your site you can either embed them with the Vimeo embed code or I made them downloadable so click the download button. Hope if helps! 

    3 different videos in the series:
    (1 minute long each)

     

     

     

     

    Here's direct links if you want to embed or download them:

    Both Maddie's Fund and Hannah Shaw, Kitten Lady have very good Youtube videos for first time animal foster people.  These gave me confidence to actually try it!
