Foster programs are an important part of animal care and increase the number of happy endings.
City staff is currently working with Priceless Pet Rescue to organize local volunteer and foster orientations.
Priceless Pet Rescue has recently partnered with Costa Mesa pet stores to give residents the opportunity to adopt pets locally.
They had a great turn out during their first event recently and have the next one scheduled at PetSmart in Costa Mesa for April 28.
Those who have found homes include: Derek, a senior cat who stole the heart of his foster mom and now gets be a part of her family forever. Citrus the kitten who was also in the Priceless Pet foster care program where she became healthy and well socialized before being old enough for adoption.
Thomas and Wishbone the cats along with Rudy the Cairn Terrier Mix, Manny the Manchester Terrier and Lewie the Jack Russell Mix also were all adopted.
