    • Rabbits
    • Guinea pigs
    • Cats

    No experience is required. Just bring a willingness to learn and a heart for helping others.

    Volunteer Requirements

    • Commit to at least 6 months
    • Pay a one-time $30 enrollment fee

    What You’ll Gain

    • Hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals
