It starts with one.
Your support is important to our work at Georgia Pet T.A.I.L.S., Inc.. There are many ways you can contribute towards our causes including volunteering, fostering, shopping our online store (coming soon!), and donating; be it monetary, in-kind, through e-bay, PayPal, Amazon Smile, Kroger, Shop For Your Cause, &/or Bissell. Every little bit that you commit goes a long way in helping us fulfill our mission. Learn more about how you can get involved and take advantage of the opportunity to do some good.
Foster an Animal
As a foster-based rescue, we simply can not save pets if we do not have fosters to rely on. We do not have a shelter or rescue building to take the pets to once we commit to saving them. We have to have a running list of approved fosters that we can call on when the time comes to help. Keep in mind that sometimes the pets we take in can be very scared, broken and in poor health. Fostering requires you to assess your foster animal and be committed to ensure they become the best pet for their forever home. You will need to be 100% committed to this. It may require you to potty train, crate train, leash walking and socialize with people and other animals. Most of our foster animals do not come “adapted”. Fostering requires time from you and routines for the foster pet. We have a foster coordinator and volunteer support group who can help you if you are unsure of a corrective action, unwanted behavior, etc. We will give you advice and the support you need, but we ask that you see your commitment through until your foster pet is ready for adoption. We cover food, supplies, medical care and transport coordination. All you have to do is provide a safe, warm, loving home.
