Adopt From Foster FAQs
What does it mean when a pet has the "Adopt From Foster" banner on their profile?
It means that the pet is lucky enough to spend their time in a foster home until they find a family to call their very own! They can be adopted right from their foster home versus having to be here at the shelter.
Where is this pet actually located?
They are in a loving foster home! All pets who have the "Adopt From Foster" banner will need an appointment in order to meet them. Sometimes, pets are met right in their foster home and other times, they are brought back to the shelter for a meet and greet - each situation may be a little different, but you and that pet's point person will work out those details!
How do I meet them/what is the adoption process?
The first step is to fill out the form that will pop up once you click the "Ask About Meeting Me button". From there, one of our staff members will reach out to you with more information about the pet and how to meet them.
Are you interested in helping a pet stay out of the shelter while they wait for an adopter?
We love to hear that! Become a foster volunteer at lollypop.org/foster. You will receive emails letting you know who is eligible for our "Adopt From Foster" program!

Felix the cat is a three-year-old tuxedo boy with a gentle heart and a quiet way of taking in the world. Having lived peacefully with other cats, he may enjoy a feline friend in his new home, especially one who understands the comfort of shared company. Timid due to the change and the stress of shelter life, Felix asks for patience and kindness, beginning his journey in a cozy “base camp”—a single room with all the essentials, where he can learn the rhythm of daily life and slowly relax into trust. From there, you’ll discover his sweet joys: bird watching from a safe perch, soft conversations and even softer pets with his special person, and calm moments spent alongside other cats. Given time and tenderness, Felix offers a beautiful companionship that grows deeper with every day. If you are interested in meeting Felix or have any questions about him, please reach out to eborden@lollypop.org.
