I, ______, agree that all of the information which I have given above is correct as written and I authorize the King’s Harvest Ministries(KHM) Pet Assistance Program to verify any information. By signing below, I acknowledge that I completely read this questionnaire, comprehend it fully, know that applying does not ensure approval and that untruthful answers or failure to comply with the requirements of this application or the agreement form can result in the forfeiture of any KHM animal cared for by me. I certify that the above information is correct, and I understand that the information will be verified.

Please read the following carefully: KHM will determine the criteria for temporarily housing an animal, decide which animals will be cared for, and appoint temporary care givers from a pre-approved list. Approved homes may always refuse any specific request due to timing or other reasons. The KHM team will inform you of any medical treatments to be given, the expected length-care period, the objective of the care (restoring to health, rearing to adoptable age, socializing, etc.), and any other expectations we have. You will be expected to keep the animal secure, return it to KHM when requested to do so, and not promise the animal to anyone, or imply that you have the authority to approve a potential adoption. KHM retains ownership of all animals in your care, and will make all decisions regarding the adoption, vetting and needs of the animals. The KHM team will handle all adoptions. I understand that all animals belong to KHM and I will not re-home any animal without written permission from the directors of KHM. I will not transfer this (these) animal(s) to a third party without KHMs' approval. If I decide to adopt the animal, I will fill out an application and pay the appropriate adoption fee. KHM will make the final decision on the adoption home.

I am responsible for the daily care (feeding, shelter, exercise, toys) for the KHM animal for the period in which he/she remains in the care at my home. I agree that at any time I can no longer care for the KHM animal in my care, I will immediately notify KHM so other arrangements can be made.

By signing this agreement I understand that the animal(s) are in the loving care of KHM. KHM is responsible for PRE APPROVED medical care this animal may require, as a care giver I am responsible for transportation to the veterinarian for treatments and medical care. A lead team member such as the program coordinator, executive director or team leader of KHM must PRE APPROVE and PRE ARRANGE for ALL veterinary care except in the case of severe emergency. All grooming is paid for by KHM for our animals, MUST BE PRE APPROVED and the care giver is responsible for transportation of their animal to the approved groomer. As the temporary home I agree to transport my foster to the veterinarian, adoption events and groomer as needed.

I have read and understand the statements above. I understand that by signing this form I agree to release and covenant to hold harmless The King’s Harvest Ministries Pet Assistance Program and its members from any claims, damages, costs, or actions incurred as a result of the care or actions of the animal. I accept full responsibility for the animal(s) actions at all times, and release the KHM from any liabilities or damages that may be incurred as a result of caring for such animal(s). I agree that the KHM is not liable under the concept of charitable immunity. Further, I understand that although the King’s Harvest Ministries takes reasonable care to screen animals for temporary placement, it makes no guarantees relating to the animals’ health, behavior, or actions. I understand that I receive temporary animals at my own risk and can reject or return any animals for which the KHM has asked me to provide care. I acknowledge that the King’s Harvest Ministries is not responsible for any property damage or personal injury suffered by me, members of my household, or any third parties during a temporary care placement, and I assume all liability to provide adequate controls to prevent such damage or injury. ______Signature Print name
