AL is a non-sheltering humane society.

Since we do not have a shelter to

house the

animals, we

rely completely on volunteer foster

homes to care for our animals until

they are adopted

into

permanent loving homes. We are

always looking for volunteer foster

parents, especially

throughout

the busy spring and summer

seasons. PAL Humane Society

provides all equipment,

supplies and support

necessary for the

comfort and well-being of

foster animals, including food,

bowls, bedding, toys, litter,

Some

animals only need a home for

three days, others may need 2-

3 months depending on each

animal's

needs. By offering your

time, energy, and home to an

animal in need, you are preparing

each animal for

adoption into a

permanent home. The foster

care program helps us to know each

animal's personality and

individual needs so we can place

them in the best suitable home.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Each day we receive numerous calls from people needing to place

their

animals in new homes. Unfortunately many are turned down simply because we do not have

a place to

house them. All of the animals we are able to help through our foster care program

would have otherwise

been killed, so your role as a foster parent is crucial to these animal’s

lives.

You can be a part of this lifesaving and rewarding program.
