Start the year with a purpose

Whether it's playing with puppies, socializing cats, or helping with food prep, laundry, or dishes, we need your help! Start the year right by helping us save animals in 2025! We also offer internships for hands-on experience in areas like clinic, intake, and more!

Volunteer

Giving an animal a break from the shelter, helps them adjust to home life and increases their chances of getting and staying adopted. We provide everything you need, and there's no long-term commitment. A weekend on your couch or a fun hike in Bidwell Park can make a big difference. Visit our website to find an animal to foster and apply—it's that easy!
