Foster a Rescue
Fostering is FREE and FUN!
We not only provide you with everything you need to take care of one of our rescues, but the experience is SO fulfilling. By placing one animal into a foster home, you allow us to save another. We are always in need of foster parents.
Please review our Adoption Process before filling out an application. If you would like to try a Foster to Adopt trial, please fill out an Adoption Application.
If you are only interested in temporarily Fostering one of our rescues, please fill out a Foster Application.
Sunny has an adoption pending and went on a foster-to-adopt trial on 2/5/22.
Meet Sunny!
Sunny is our big, handsome, lover boy! He is a calm, easy-going, affectionate guy who just wants to spend his days napping in your lap, snuggling up against you to watch movies, or curled up and cozy in bed with you. You will usually find him being a couch potato or lounging at a window, but he will make sure to get in his daily workout routine of batting around his favorite catnip mouse. Sometimes he will also get his steps in by hopping onto the kitchen counter and then onto the top of the fridge to demonstrate his impressive cat skills! He understands that since he is such a handsome and sweet chunk, it's hard for humans to resist picking him up and hugging him. He doesn't mind it if you keep it brief so he can get back to loafing around or purring in your lap.
Sunny has been in a foster home with other dogs and cats. He ignored the dogs and had very little interaction with the cats, even his own brother. Sunny and his brother, Mango, lived together peacefully but they mostly each did their own thing and respected each others space. Mango has found his furever home and Sunny is currently residing in a foster home as a solo kitty and enjoying being the focus of all the human affection.
Sunny and his brother were adopted from ARWOB as kittens in 2015. Sadly, their first family moved away last year and left them behind. He has not met any young children but given his affectionate and easy-going personality, we expect he would love respectful kids whom he can snuggle with and give him endless love and attention. Sunny should be fine as a solo cat or peacefully cohabitating with another calm, independent cat.
Please submit an adoption application online at arwob.org if you would like to brighten your days or warm your lap with this Sunny boy!
