Fostering

As well as fostering AANT members have found new families willing to foster and help rescue groups cope with the overwhelming number of animals arriving daily in shelters. As rescue groups can only save animals when foster families are available, the importance of increasing the number of families willing to help an animal ‘in transition’ is crucial.

Our group made donations to several organizations including Kool Kats, the Humane Society, August Dogs, Halteman’s Haven, and Basset Hound Rescue.

 In January AANT members made a presentation to Keller City Council, proposing changes, which should be implemented to benefit the animals at the shelter. At their January 19th meeting it was announced that several of these changes will in fact be introduced in the near future including the testing and vaccinating of incoming animals to prevent the spread of disease.
