A lot of places will send some animals needing more intensive care to foster people, to both clear up the shelter for new arrivals and to give the animal a more comfortable and calm place to recuperate. They also do this with animals who have been abused or need more socialization due to how they were raised or treated in their former lives.
Also, fostering out injuried wild animals or abandoned babies to individuals with knowledge in how to handle and care for these animals is very popular too.
