While in The Home Connection Program, the animal will be marketed to potential adopters and your assistance is needed in making second chances possible. Providing that the animal is healthy and in an adoptable state, each foster care provider is required to transport the animal to adoption events or Pet Connection Satellite Adoption Centers including but not limited to Mounds Mall of Anderson, PetSmart and Speck’s Pet Supplies. Please take driving distance into consideration when choosing to foster. Some events may occur in Noblesville, Indianapolis and other areas outside of Madison County.

The Animal Protection League presently does not have a foster-to-adopt program. Although, some foster families may fall in love with their animal and choose to proceed with an adoption. The animal is considered the property of the Animal Protection League until an adoption agreement is signed and associated fees are paid. Until that time, The Animal Protection League will work to find an adopter and reserves the right to remove the animal from your home at any time
