please review the following and sign at the bottom
• I understand that there is always an adjustment period for any foster cat coming into my home. There is no specific time limit for an animal to be in foster care, and I am willing to work to make this foster cat a member of my family during his/her stay. I understand that many of these cats have survived tremendous odds and needs lots of TLC. I understand that HAH cannot be held responsible for the actions, behaviors and/or medical condition of all the cats in its rescue. I agree to assume the risks implicit in working with cats who may have been abandoned, beaten, or otherwise mistreated or abused, or who may suffer from an illness, condition or disease. Although HAH evaluates cats prior to accepting them into its rescue, they cannot guarantee the temperament of any of the animals since most of their histories are unknown. • I understand my foster cat is to stay indoors only at all times AND that I am to love and feed him/her. • I understand that HAH reserves the right to check on the welfare of any foster cat on my premises, and to reclaim both possession and ownership without payment of any kind. In the event that I do not comply with the foster guidelines and HAH reclaims any foster cat from me, I waive claim to trespasser. • I understand that HAH must approve all adoption applications, so I will not promise anyone that they can adopt my foster. Of course HAH will be happy to receive adoption referrals and recommendations. If you are considering adopting your foster yourself, HAH would discuss any serious applications with you before placing the dog or cat in another home. • I also agree that if, at any time in the future, I cannot continue on in the foster program for ANY reason, I will not give away, sell or euthanize the cat. I will contact the rescue coordinator for arrangements to be made to move the cat(s) into other foster homes within the HAH group. I understand that HAH will be responsible for any medical expenses within reason that may occur while the cat is in my care. If a veterinary visit is necessary, please contact your foster coordinator and keep a copy of all receipts for reimbursement. You will need to complete a foster expense report, and submit it with the original detailed receipt for reimbursement if unable to reach the foster coordinator. (You must try to contact the rescue before taking to the vet. • I have accurately completed this application and all information stated is correct. I have read the application and understand the risks involved in working with these cats. I also agree that if the information given on this application is not accurate to the best of my knowledge, I forfeit all rights to any and all foster cats residing in my care. • I understand if this application is approved, and signed by myself (FOSTER), the president of Have a Heart or another board member, that it becomes a binding legal contract and in the event that the terms of the contract are violated and the FOSTER is unwilling to relinquish possession of the animal or violates the contract in any way, then the organization Have a Heart has the right to pursue the FOSTER legally for possession and/or monetary damages for the time and money spent retrieving the animal and filing suit, as well as reasonable attorney fees.
