    If fostering, you will also be added to the Facebook Foster Group and be given the opportunity to foster animals.

    That Paws & Claws Adoptions heavily use Facebook as the primary means of supporting volunteers and foster carers.

    If you are not on Facebook we highly recommend you join EVEN if it is just used for rescue work.

    That said we STILL work with people who do not have Facebook, however the support we can provide will be limited.
