Children’s Volunteer Opportunities
Page Pals is open to youth ages 6 to 15 with parental supervision. Our Page Pals volunteers provide enrichment and reduce stress for cats, while at the same time strengthening reading skills, by reading out loud to our pets in both our Real Life Rooms and Cat Housing. Human interaction is one of the most important ways we keep our pets happy and healthy and you and your child can be an important part of this work.
Be sure to read and complete ALL steps in the Getting Started section to the right before signing up for your Page Pals orientation!
How It Works
Kids age 6 to 15 may read to the cats at our Main Campus location with your supervision. Because of the training involved we do ask that you and your child commit to at least six months with the Page Pals program.
Getting Started
Please send an email to [email protected] to let us know you are interested in joining our Page Pals Program.
Once we receive your email, the following steps will need to be completed:
Step 1: We will email you a link to complete our Volunteer Application. A parent or guardian must complete the application.
Step 2: Once we receive the completed application, we will send an invitation to complete a background check.
Step 3: Once the background check is completed, we will email you links to two short videos on cat behavior. Both parent & child are required to watch the videos.
Step 4: After completing the videos, we will schedule an in-person mentoring session for you and your child(ren) at our Main Campus.
