In France, nearly 100,000 dogs and cats are reportedly abandoned each year.

The shelters being overwhelmed, associations were born like Ron'Rhône, which offers families to welcome animals while awaiting their final placements.

The association takes care of the veterinary costs as well as certain equipment.

Once the animal has been placed in a foster family, the association organizes visits to ensure the conditions and the family signs a foster family contract mentioning the basic rules.

The foster families then receive the potential adoptive families in their homes.

"Instead of going through a breeding, I prefer to take one who has already had a difficult life, to give them a second chance", explains Clémence, interested in adoption and who comes to visit the kittens.
