We need to be really honest with you all.
Right now, we are being absolutely flooded with surrender and rehoming requests. And not just “change of mind” situations, these are genuine cases where people can no longer keep their animals and are reaching out for help.
The hardest part is… we can’t say yes.
Not because we don’t want to. Not because the animals don’t deserve help. But because we simply do not have enough foster carers.
We haven’t seen it this bad in a long time, and it’s only getting worse.
Our admin team is tired. The people behind the scenes trying to coordinate everything are stretched.
Our existing foster carers, who are doing an incredible job, are starting to burn out.
Fostering is what allows us to exist. Without foster homes, we cannot take animals in. It’s that simple.
We are desperately asking, if you have ever thought about fostering, now is the time.
All you need is a secure yard, a safe home, and the ability to give an animal a place to land while we do the work to find them their forever home.
There is no cost to you.
All food, supplies and vet work are covered by SARG.
This is exactly why we fundraise, so we can support both the animals and the people who open their homes to them.
Applying is simple:
Download the application form here: www.sarg.net.au/foster
Complete it and return it to: [email protected]
One of our senior team members will then come out, have a chat with you and walk you through everything.
If you’ve ever thought “maybe one day”, please consider making that day now.
Because right now, we are having to turn animals away… and that’s something none of us want to be doing.
