I love spending time volunteering at my local animal shelter!  It feels good to care for those poor animals!
I bet it does!  I feel bad for the stray, lost, and abandoned dogs and cats and other animals, and it's wonderful that you help take care of them!
There are way too many strays and not nearly enough people to adopt.  Have you ever worked at an animal shelter?
Yes, I have worked in one for 5 years!  Interestingly, some people think that "animal shelter" is another way to say "pound"
What is the difference between the two?
Some think that "animal shelter" sounds more caring than the term "pound".  Do you volunteer at one of the no-kill shelters?
Yes, there are 2 local no-kill shelters.  It is too hard to go to a place where they routinely put down the animals.  I try to foster animals as much as possible as well.
That's awesome!  I love that a no-kill shelter is able to expand its resources using volunteers!
