The animals available for foster are from municipal shelters. They are examined when they exit the shelter and if necessary again by FAR Side Journey’s veterinarian prior to being made available for fostering. Even with these precautions, there is always a chance that an animal is incubating a disease or has behavioral problems. Any signs of illness, disease or behavioral problems must be reported to FAR Side Journey Inc, by the foster caregiver immediately. FAR Side Journey cannot guarantee the health or disposition of any foster Pet. Do you agree to these terms:* Yes, I agree to the terms.
