By submitting this application: I certify that I am fostering this pet for myself, and that I am permitted to have this pet in my home. I understand that the foster to adopt agreement is for 1 month. At that time this pet would need to be formally adopted. The information I have provided on this application is true to the best of my knowledge. I understand that if I willfully provide false information, my application may be denied. I understand that I as the foster cannot adopt out or give the pet away. All potential interested adopters must go through Fishtails Animal Rescue. I understand that Fishtails Animal Rescue does not provide food, litter, etc. I understand that by filling out this application it does not guarantee Fishtails will take a pet into the organization.
