💔 They need somewhere to go. We need someone to say yes to fostering.

These dogs deserve a safe place to sleep, a gentle hand, and the chance to feel loved again. But with so many dogs needing help and too few foster homes to take them in, we can’t do it without you.

🐾 We provide all supplies and veterinary care.
🏡 You provide a safe home, patience, and love until they’re adopted.

You don’t need a perfect house or all the answers. Just a little room in your home—and your heart—for a dog who needs you.

Please don’t wait, hoping someone else will step up. Your application could be the reason one of these dogs gets the help they need.

Visit hwhanimalrescue.com, complete our foster application, and email it to us today.

You can’t change every dog’s life. But for the dog you welcome home, you can change everything. 💜

🚨🐾 FOSTER HOMES URGENTLY NEEDED! 🐾🚨

Half-Way Home Animal Rescue needs your help! Opening your home gives a pet a safe place to land while they wait for a family of their own. 💜

🏡 You provide the home, love, patience and daily care.
🐾 We provide everything else—including food, supplies, veterinary care and support along the way!

We need fosters who can commit to caring for a foster pet until adoption. That time together helps them feel safe, settle in and prepare for their next chapter.

If you’ve been thinking about fostering, please apply today at hwhanimalrescue.com. We urgently need more helping hands and welcoming homes!

Can’t foster? Please share—someone you know could be the home a pet is waiting for. 💜

🐾 Our Sunday help wanted ad is STILL open! 🐾

We’re excellent at napping, supervising and scattering litter. Cleaning up after ourselves? That’s where you come in. 😼

We are still looking for a reliable human to care for us at our cat center at Petco in Orland Park every Sunday, starting ASAP! It takes less than an hour, and your duties include:

🐱 Cleaning our two litter boxes
🥣 Washing and filling our food and water bowls
🧹 Sweeping our condos
🛏️ Straightening our blankets—we’ll rearrange them later
💕 Giving us the attention we’ve been patiently demanding

We need someone who can commit to every Sunday. Vacations are allowed. 😽Volunteers must be 18 or older, but parent-and-teen teams are welcome!

You don’t have to live in Orland Park—just be willing to make the trip each Sunday. We pay in purrs, slow blinks and complimentary cat hair. Very competitive benefits. 😉

Please send the rescue a DM if you can help!

Signed,
The Cats & Kittens of Half-Way Home 🐾
