I have read and understood the terms and conditions of foster care for NOAWS foster animals.

I agree to contact The Northern Ontario Animal Welfare Society if any NOAWS foster animals are missing.

I agree to contact NOAWS when medical care is needed as soon as possible after a medical problem is detected

I agree that I will not allow foster dogs or cats to roam free outdoors.

At no time will I surrender this foster animal to a Municipal Pound or other agency, without the express consent or direction from NOAWS Board members.

I understand that I shall not release animals (ie. for adoption, sell, euthanize or otherwise remove from my home) without the express consent of the Foster Home co-ordinator and/or Chief Adoptions Officer.

I agree that I will not take in dogs or cats for foster care without the prior express consent of the Foster Home coordinator.

In the event that no alternate foster homes are available to house foster animals, I agree to house or safely board the pet(s) until such time as the space becomes available.

I understand and agree that The Northern Ontario Animal Welfare Society can check up on my foster animal by telephone or visitation. I also agree that The Northern Ontario Animal Welfare Society can remove any foster animal(s) if they are not being properly cared for.

I understand that it is my responsibility to ensure that all unspayed/neutered animals in my care are not allowed to breed, and that NOAWS is not responsible for kittens or puppies that are a result of foster animals breeding with each other or with animals owned by the foster home.

I understand that NOAWS does not assume responsibility for damage to personal property caused by animals in foster care.

I understand that it is my responsibility to ensure that my personally owned animals are vaccinated and free of communicable disease, and that NOAWS will provide for medical costs associated with vaccinating and spaying/neutering of foster animals, based on priorities within the foster home program.

I understand that NOAWS will attempt to provide food and other supplies as much as funds allow, but that, on occasion, such supplies will not be available. In these circumstances, I understand that I will be responsible for providing adequate food and supplies for all foster animals in my care.

I understand that I must complete a "Request for Reimbursement" form to claim any expenses related to foster animals in my care, and that these requests are subject to approval from the NOAWS board of Directors.

I have received a copy of this agreement and fully understand and agree to my obligations to The Northern Ontario Animal Welfare Society and foster animals in my care.
