COMMITMENT SUITABILITY

------------------------------------

I understand that FFARQ Inc is a charity operating on volunteer time and utilising donations to pay vet fees, which are frequently higher than the income derived from adoption fees.

I understand that I'm responsible for ensuring my own pet's vaccinations, flea and worm medications are up to date at all times, as that can pose a risk to young unvaccinated kittens.

I understand that my team leader at FFARQ Inc organises and pays for veterinary consultations and I must liaise with my team leader if I think my foster pet needs a vet consult.

I agree to a Furry Friends volunteer visiting my home for an informal chat and to check for potential hazards.

I agree to keep my foster cats indoors in a home with screened doors and windows or in a safe enclosure at all times. I understand that FFARQ Inc cats are 100% indoors cats.

I understand that Furry Friends cats and kittens must be introduced slowly over time and I'm able to separate my foster cats from my own pets.

I agree to follow up conversations with adopters to help my foster pet settle into a new home.

I understand that my foster cat must be desexed, vaccinated and microchipped prior to being adopted.

I AGREE TO ALL OF THE ABOVE *

------------------------------------

I understand that FFARQ Inc sometimes receives donations of food, medications, litter trays, litter and other supplies which volunteers distribute among carers, prioritising multi-pet carers, however there's no guarantee that FFARQ can supply all pet supplies on an ongoing basis.

I UNDERSTAND THE ABOVE *

------------------------------------

I have/will get these supplies for each foster cat prior to arrival. (Your team leader might be able to provide some items from donations if assistance is needed).

* Separate litter tray
* Adequate litter
* Recommended dry and wet foods
* Food and water bowls
* Bedding (washed regularly)
* Vet recommended flea and worm treatments

YES, I AGREE I WILL GET SUPPLIES *

------------------------------------

I declare that I have no more than the council regulated number of pets for my property and I am allowed to keep another pet on my property

YES, I declare I am within council regulated pet numbers *

------------------------------------

I will take photos and videos in portrait format suitable for the web and social media and submit them to my co-ordinator. Photos and videos are critical to our cats and kittens being adopted.

YES, I WILL TAKE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS *
