Volunteer
OMHS is a volunteer-based, non-profit organization, and the volunteers for OMHS are a wonderful dedicated and reliable bunch of folks!
Volunteer opportunities available right meow:
-
Adoption Center: Volunteer to socialize with the beautiful cats and kittens waiting for new homes, help clean litter boxes, and feed and water the animals. If you are able to donate an hour or two per week or every other week, please email our shelter manager and ask what volunteer shifts are open at this time. We ask that any children under 18 years of age be accompanied by an adult when working. OMHS has a volunteer application form to be completed.
-
Foster Homes for Dogs or Cats: Volunteer to open your home and heart to give a foster home to a dog or cat waiting for adoption. Dogs and cats learn healthy behaviors and thrive in foster homes surrounded by the activities of daily family life.
