Read to the Animals
Registration will go live at NOON on the first weekday of each month
This exciting opportunity allows children ages 5-12 to read to cats and small animals like rabbits and guinea pigs waiting on their forever homes. Children can bring their own books or pick from our collection of books!
There are 30 minute timeslots available from 3:30 - 5:30 pm.
- Each child must be accompanied by a parent or guardian who stays at the shelter during their reading session.
- Each child can be registered for one 30 minute time slot per session.
- Readers must be registered to attend (siblings that aren't registered may not join)
- Fee: $5 donation to help our Humane Education Department continue offering youth programs and community outreach.
- Our doors will be locked since we are closed for adoptions on Mondays, but a staff member or volunteer will be there to let you in and check your child in.
