Edit: FOSTER FOUND!!!! ❤️

Meet Hunny Bear! She's a 5-year-old St. Bernard who would love to find a foster home (or forever home!)

She is good with other dogs and kids! Her history with cats is unknown. This big girl would much rather wait for her forever home on your couch than in the shelter!

If you're interested in either fostering or adopting this sweet pup, please give us a call at 607-547-8111 or shoot an email to [email protected].

We are looking for a very quiet foster home for this little guy, Smiley.

He is a special-needs pup that we are still medically evaluating. It would be in his best interest to get out of the stressful shelter and go to a foster home without kids, though he could go with other relaxed animals, while we continue to evaluate him. He's a lil guy, just about 25 pounds.

If you are thinking that your home would be a nice and cozy place for him to relax for the new few weeks, please give us a call at 607-547-8111 or email [email protected].

These three new pups would love a foster home 🥺

These guys were transfered to us from another shelter down south.

Jethro the senior beagle. He is 9 years old and oh-so sweet! He wiggles his chubby butt whenever someone approaches his kennel, but the commotion of the shelter is a little overwhelming for him.

Zelda is a 9 month old ball of energy!!! She's the orange mix breed who's got a lot of personality and loves attention. She needs a foster home who can help her work on some manners and get some of that puppy energy out!!!

Then we have Smiley, a very nervous almost 4 year old mix who is, quite frankly, not having a good time in the shelter, and who can blame him? It can be stressful for any dog, but Smiley is taking it the hardest out of this group. He'd really like a quiet foster home where he can comfortably come out of his shell while he waits for his forever home.

If you're interested or have any questions about fostering one of these pups, you can reach the foster coordinator at 607-547-8111 ext. 115 or email [email protected].

We are looking for fosters to take in individual adult cats from a rescue earlier this week. These 5 cats have tested negative for FeLV, however they were exposed to a cat in their previous home who did test positive. Our protocol calls for retesting of animals exposed to FeLV 30 days after the initial test to ensure that they truly are FeLV negative.

FeLV can spread by cat-to-cat contact and the virus is shed through bodily fluids. Though possible, it is very rare for transmission to occur through shared surfaces. If you have cats of your own and are interested in fostering one of these cats during their 30-day waiting period, they would need to be housed in a room of their own + have their own food bowls, litter boxes, and litter scoops (which the SQSPCA can provide for those interested). Fosters should make sure to wash hands + change clothes after handling these cats and their items before handling their personal cats as an extra safety measure.

Pictured below is Malcom, one of the cats from the rescue who will be stuck in the shelter while he waits for his 30-day waiting period for his retest unless a foster comes forward.

If you have any questions or are interested in fostering one of these adult cats, please give us a call at 607-547-8111 ext. 115 or shoot an email to [email protected].

Hey everyone!

Happy Foster Friday! 😸
Mickey Rourke just had the BEST SUMMER at his foster home! Mickey met lots of amazing families, but no one took the jump to commit to taking this handsome gentleman into their family. He is blind, but once he's familiar with his surroundings, he gets around just great, including making it to his litter box every single time!
Mickey is the sweetest boy of all time, and absolutely loves attention as you can see from this video.
Because he is blind, Mickey needs to be very cautious around other animals, and wouldn't thrive in our cat community rooms. It's just too many unfamiliar animals in one place! For this reason, Mickey does best in a foster home where he can becoming familiar with his surroundings and feel relaxed.
His foster is returning to school, so Mickey is looking for a new foster home (or even better- a forever home!)
If you're looking for an easy-going companion who will give you all the snuggles you could ever want, Mickey is your man!
Give us a call at 607-547-8111 if you're interested in fostering or adopting Mickey. You won't regret letting this gentleman into your home and heart!
