With local animal shelters over crowded, hundreds of dogs and cats are often in uncomfortable settings for days, sometimes weeks.

However, loving foster pet owners are stepping up to help until the animals are adopted.

As we continue our week of special reports on pets, Senior Reporter John Palminteri shows us what foster pet parents do to enrich the lives of these animals and get them ready to move in with a new family.
