Volunteering
"Alone we can do so little;
together we can do so much."
Helen Keller
Pawz & Purrz Animal Rescue is a volunteer-driven, foster-based non-profit organization. Our most valuable asset is our volunteers - the time, energy, dedication, and expertise they bring is truly immeasurable! The more volunteers we have, the more animals we can save. Below are some of the volunteer opportunities we have at Paws and Purrz.
Pawz & Purrz is a foster-based rescue. Therefore, the number of animals we are able to save largely depends on the number of foster families we have. When you foster for Pawz and Purrz we will provide medical care, food, and essential supplies like litter boxes and collars. YOU provide the LOVE! If you'd like to discuss whether fostering is right for you and your family, send us a message. We'd love to tell you more about the joys of fostering.

A seen animal is an adopted animal. With this in mind, Pawz & Purrz will take any opportunity to get our adoptable animals out into the community. In order to do that we need volunteers. From setting up the mobile kitty crates to greeting people at the information table to handling adoptable animals, Pawz and Purrz can always use volunteers to help out at events. If you're interested in helping out during our events, please complete a volunteer application by clicking here.
Transport
Occasionally the need arises for assistance with transporting adoptable pets to events, foster homes or vet appointments. If you think transporting might be a way you could help us please let us know and we'll get you on the transport volunteer list.
