SENIORS FOR SENIORS

Our Seniors for Seniors program aims to place Frosted Faces with people 65 + years old and with the ability to care for an animal independently in their home and who would like the companionship of a senior animal. Our goal is to reduce or eliminate the common obstacles that prevent senior people from owning pets with the support of a volunteer; however, it is important to note that our program cannot accommodate all seniors. We match Frosted Faces and seniors based on a variety of factors, including the level of care that a Frosted Face may require and the amount of care that the adopter can provide. While volunteers are a helpful part of making this program a success, ultimately the health and well-being of the Frosted Face is the responsibility of the senior adopter.
