Make a Difference: Volunteer!

The Sanctuary at Haafsville is very proud of the commitment and dedication of our volunteers.  As we are a volunteer-based organization, we could not save all these dogs and cats without YOU!

What does it mean to become a Volunteer at The Sanctuary?

Volunteering is a mutually beneficial arrangement for both the volunteers and the animals. Though volunteers will of course care for the animals; the animals also give back to volunteers. Through the animals’ gentle presence, individuals and groups can gain peace and a sense of purpose.

 

Committed volunteers socialize, walk, clean, and love the animals entrusted to our care. 

 

We are looking for volunteers that can be scheduled for ongoing, regular, 2-3 hour weekly or bi-weekly shifts. The minimum requirement for initial volunteers is to commit to these regular hours for at least a 3-month term after signing up. It takes a lot of effort and time to train new volunteers so please be aware of these expectations. Also, because of this, we do not offer summer only volunteer opportunities. For folks who cannot make this type of commitment, we also need Event & Fundraising VolunteersBuilding/Maintenance Volunteers, as well as other opportunities!

 

  • Students and others required to do community service will be welcomed to do so at The Sanctuary—a place of peace and mutual benefit.
  • Youths and seniors, individually or in groups, will be encouraged to come and spend time helping to care for our animals and socializing with them. The animals will benefit from their attention and the people will gain the joy and comfort of interaction with animals.
  • The Sanctuary will provide scouting groups opportunities to help them qualify for badges or provide community service.
  • Other youth groups, such as Boys & Girls Clubs, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, and church groups will have a place to assemble, to enjoy time with each other and with the animals.

Ween
Ween is hoping for a miracle. She is the longest resident in the Sanctuary at Haafsville Cat Building. Ween is sweet, loving, playful, and a shameless mooch! Besides that, she is gorgeous with thoughtful eyes and lovely coloring.

You may be wondering how such a great cat is still at a shelter. It is because this purrfect girl also has occasional accidents outside of the litter box.

Ween is a very special cat who needs a special person, someone who is patient, understanding, and good with a Swiffer! However, the reward is a truly amazing companion. Ween has participated in multiple photoshoots while on a leash and harness. She even completed a 5K riding along in a backpack.

Ween is 5 years old, healthy, spayed, vaccinated, negative for FeLV & FIV, and microchipped.

Ween spends most of her time on the nice list. Don't let a few moments on the naughty list stand between her and a forever home.
