OC Animal Care Announces Foster-to-Adopt Pilot Program

OCAC Foster-to-Adopt Flyer

TUSTIN, Calif. (June 6, 2024) – In honor of National Foster a Pet Month, OC Animal Care is thrilled to announce the launch of our Foster-to-Adopt Pilot Program, aimed at providing a unique opportunity for individuals or families to take select dogs home for two weeks before deciding if the relationship is meant to be. The program seeks to expand avenues for finding forever homes for dogs currently at the shelter, while also offering a flexible and rewarding experience for participants.
During the Foster-to-Adopt period, your dog will have a chance to get to know you and show off their unique personality, while at the same time, giving you the opportunity to learn if they are a good fit for your family. All while having the guidance and support from the OC Animal Care Foster Team to ensure the Foster-to-Adopt process results in a meaningful and successful adoption match.


Eligible dogs are selected by the Shelter Team based on a compilation of information and include a variety of ages, sizes, and breeds. New dogs are consistently added, and all dogs in the program have been fully vetted, vaccinated, spay/neutered and are current on dewormer and flea preventative.


To choose a Foster-to-Adopt dog, visit OC Animal Care 7 days a week during Viewing Hours from 2 to 5 p.m. When walking through the kennel areas of available dogs, just look for the Foster-to-Adopt kennel tag. A meet-and-greet visit with you and the dog you are interested in fostering-to-adopt is required and can often be accommodated the same day.

Join OC Animal Care on June 1 for California Adopt-a-Pet Day

CA Adopt-a-Pet Day 2024

In honor of the first California Adopt-a-Pet Day, on Saturday, June 1, OC Animal Care is offering free adoptions and resource connections.
Thanks to support from CalAnimals, ASPCA, and SFSPCA, OC Animal Care is waiving fees for every adoptable animal. Southern California shelters and rescues are full, and with the busy summer months ahead, we anticipate an even greater influx of animals in need of care. By adopting a pet for free on June 1, you not only gain a loving companion, but also help create space for us to assist more animals in our community.


Adopt-a-Pet Day Activities:
11 a.m. to 5p.m. – Visitors are welcome to pre-schedule or request the next available one-on-one adoption visit to spend time with a particular pet they are interested in adopting.


12 to 5 p.m. – Viewing Hours will begin at 12 p.m. on June 1. Visitors are welcome to drop by to walk through and view ready-to-go-home dogs and cats during viewing hours.


12 to 5 p.m. – Join us for Resource Connections:
Sittin’ with Kittens: Meet kittens and their foster families. Our amazing fosters will showcase kittens that have been in foster care and are now ready to find their new families.


Foster Pooches on the Patio: Meet dogs getting a break from the shelter and hear directly from their foster families. Each foster will give you all the information you need to know about their foster dog and if that dog will be a great fit for your family – what they love, favorite snacks, housetraining routine, and so much more.


Resource Information: Visit informational booths like Ask the Trainer, where you’ll get to meet with OC Animal Care staff and ask basic dog training questions. Ask the Groomer, where you can learn about different pet brushes and grooming tricks and tips. And don’t forget to stop by various booths to learn about OC Animal Care trucks, how to volunteer at OC Animal Care, and foster opportunities.
