Make a difference in your community by helping the cats and kittens living at the shelter and in your own neighborhood. Every volunteer hour makes a difference!

 

Opportunities for volunteers include working in our adoption center and clinic, fostering kittens, helping with fundraising events, community outreach, adoption counseling, office help, and more!
