Signature * I understand that fostering is a temporary commitment and that the animal(s) remains the property of the organization. I understand and agree that all foster animals remain in the legal property of Maury County Animal Services (MCAS) at all times. All medical decisions, treatments, and procedures will be made solely by MCAS veterinary staff and authorized personnel. I agree to follow all foster program policies and instructions, provide proper daily care, housing, nutrition, and supervision, and to communicate any health, behavioral, or safety concerns promptly to MCAS. I understand that failure to comply with these requirements may result in removal from the foster program.	Clear
