Lending a Hand to Some Furry Friends
We had a wonderful experience volunteering at the Alan Purcell Wayne Animal Shelter. After the staff showed us what needed to be done, we split up into teams to wash dishes, wipe counters, fold laundry and clean crates. The cats watched curiously as we swept and mopped the floors. While we were there, other volunteers fed the animals and cleaned their litter boxes. It was very exciting to meet a few of the dogs and take them on a long walk. They were very energetic and eager to get some fresh air and exercise. Everyone on the trip agreed that it felt great to help animals who were waiting to find their forever homes. Thank you so much to the directors of the PAWS program for making this experience possible for us. We hope to go back again soon!
