It's All About the Cats does not have a shelter. We rely on foster homes to take care of our cats and kittens during the time that they are getting all their medical work done and then while we are working to find them homes. We used to have over a dozen foster homes but have lost many of these due to changes in circumstances related to the poor economy.

At this time, we have only a handful of foster homes. This limits how many cats and kittens we are able to help at any one time. The capacity in these foster homes is severely limited at all times. Therefore,

                           We do not accept cats and kittens from the general public.

If you have a cat or kitten that you have rescued, or if you have a pet cat or kitten that you can no longer keep, we will work with you to find a new home for this animal. However, you must be prepared to serve as a temporary foster home during the period of time that we are helping you. Please note that we will not ask you to foster additional cats for us – only the ones that you have found or need to re-home.

Temporary Foster Homes

 If you are interested in working with us to find a home for a pet that you cannot keep any longer, or a stray that you want to help but cannot keep, please read Temporary Foster Care Steps and follow the instructions provided. We cannot help you until we have received all the completed forms and applicable documents.

Please keep in mind the following items when making a decision to work with our group: 

• Our vet is located on Pershing Ave (about 4 miles north of the Orlando International airport). Your cat or kitten may or may not require a visit to the vet – depending on what medical work it has already had done. You can use your personal vet for any required medical work - but if you do you will have to pay out of your own pocket. 
• We hold our adoption events at the Petco Store at the Loop Shopping Center on John Young Parkway (north Kissimmee). The cat or kitten may need to attend quite a few adoption events before it gets a home - so you need to make sure that the driving is not too much before you commit to fostering.
• If you withdraw your cat or kitten from the adoption program before it is placed in an adoptive home, we expect you to repay our vet expenses which could run up to $70 or more per cat or kitten.

If you are agreeable to our process and conditions and feel the driving is not too much, then please fill out the Temporary Foster Care Agreement and the Website Information Formand return both to us. A separate website information form is required for each cat or kitten you want to list with us. Both forms are .pdf files that you can fill out on your computer and then print. You can fax the printed forms to 407-812-6468 or scan them and attach them to a return email. If you want to use the “submit by email” button on the website information form, you must first save your completed copy [use “file”, “save as” on the top menu bar of your .pdf reader application] before you email it or we will get a blank form.

If possible, please send some photos of the cat or kitten along with your forms. We prefer .jpg format files but can convert them if you do not have this option. If your cat or kitten has any prior medical work, we need documentation from your vet. They can fax this to 407-812-6468. The items we are interested in include: spay or neuter, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, and testing for FeLV/FIV. All cats will require current flea treatment and de-worming.

 Long-Term Foster Homes Needed

If you are interested in fostering but do not have any cats or kittens who need a home, we would love to hear from you. We can supply the cats or kittens - your choice - and can guarantee that it will be an experience you will never forget. Please keep in mind:

Fostering is a family commitment. Everyone in the household needs to agree on it.
