Volunteers Needed

Are you an animal lover? Ever wanted to help homeless pets? Here's your chance.

Helmetta

Regional Animal Shelter is the temporary home to approximately 40 dogs

and 150 cats. Each of the cats, kittens, dogs and puppies need to know

someone loves them. They need to know someone cares. Each "temporary

resident" has it's kennel area cleaned, receives fresh food and water,

clean bedding and a toy. Light housekeeping and tidying is also

sometimes needed.

There's alot of dedication, care and some "elbow

grease" needed to properly maintain our shelter pets. It's can be a bit

of work, but every moment is worth it.
