I have been thining of fostering. I live in Washington, PA. Most likely it would be cats that are best for me. Where is a good place to go? How do you start? Do they fund for the vet vists? Any other helpful advise?

Here's a list of the closest ones on Petfinder..

Pet Search looks like it's close to you.. They state that they cover all food and vet expenses.. Here's their volunteer page..

Though of course, pick a group you feel comfortable with.. I've fostered for several groups and there were certainly some I liked a lot better then others..
It's often easiest for people getting into fostering to foster for a no-kill at first..

Most shelters and Humane Socities are in need of foster homes. Go visit one and fill out an application, and get things started.
Know the terms up front...like what to do if illness occurs, who to call, when to bring them back......EVERYTHING should be spelled out!!!!!
Usually you are not responsible for vet bills unless you did not follow the rules.
