Training Offered to Become Animal Foster Home

Citrus County Animal Services invites you to attend an information/training ses-

sion on becoming a foster home for shelter animals to be held on Wednesday, July 22 from

2:00 pm to 4 pm. The training will be held at the Citrus County Auditorium, located at 3610

S. Florida Avenue in Inverness.

Animal Services is seeking foster homes in which to place a pet that has been with

us an extended length of time and requires a little extra promoting to find them a loving

home. We also, from time to time, have animals who need a loving hand and a place to re-

cuperate after surgery or recover from an illness. We also seek foster homes for puppies and

kittens that are too young for adoption.
