Join our Foster Team!

By opening your heart and home to animals in need, you can help us save the lives of Spokane County's most vulnerable animals! Our most common foster kiddos include kittens and puppies under three months of age, cats and dogs of any age recovering from illness or injury, and cats and dogs who need some emotional care and comfort. 

Please consider joining our amazing team today! To get started or to ask questions, please email us at  SCRAPSRescue@spokanecounty.org!
