Foster

Have room in your heart and home to take in a "short term" visitor?  Click on our 'Foster' page above to get started.

Don't have the time and/or the desire to adopt, volunteer or foster, we understand!  But, you can still help the unfortunate animals who cannot help themselves and need your help.  Here's how.  Click on the 'Donate' page link above or the button below and you can make a financial contribution that is tax deductible.

Cara's House is the open intake shelter for Ascension Parish!!! We are not a rescue group and can only take animals from within our parish except for animals that are brought in by St James parish animal control due to the fact that they have a contract with Ascension parish. We only intake animals during the week. Our hours are Monday- Wednesday 9-5, Thursday, 9-12, and Friday 9-3. We are open on Saturday from 11-3 for adoptions only.

You can save on your dog's HeartGard at 1800PetMeds.
