Volunteer
We welcome your interest in PAW’s volunteer opportunities:
1. Help out at Fundraising Events
You would be invited to work with the Director of Fundraising and and other volunteers with various fundraising events including the book sale, bake sales, Facebook auctions, on-line 50/50 fundraiser and the casino.
2. Become a Foster Home Provider
You could save a life! All adoption cats live with foster families who provide them with a safe (indoor only) and loving environment. Recently rescued cats sometimes need time to recover from the emotional shock of abandonment, displacement or physical trauma. The PAW Society's main focus is adult cats but from time to time, PAW may need a foster home for a single kitten or a mother cat with kittens. We also ask the foster family if they can provide food and other basics (tax receipts available); however, if necessary, PAW will supply food and litter or set up a sharing system. Foster families are asked to arrange their own pet-sitting if they are planning on being out of town. We want our foster families to know that fostering a cat is usually a long term commitment.
Just as with an adoption, if the foster family is renting their residence, they must have prior approval of their landlord.
PAW representatives operate closely with foster homes and offer support and cover all health care costs if or when needed. Fostering is the most important link in PAW's ability to respond to a cat in need.
