Do you want to cuddle cats at your local animal welfare refuge?

Good news for the animals: The new LAARF (Les Amis des Animaux des Refuges en France) SPA and refuge volunteer network is doing so well. Angouleme SPA reported on Thursday that EVERY dog had been walked since the beginning of the week.


If you'd like to volunteer at your local SPA, walking dogs, cuddling cats, taking photos, even grooming and cleaning, please contact your SPA directly, or join the LAARF group to hook up with a companion. There are plenty of kind people who will accompany you for your first visit.


Or, can you donate much needed bedding, in the form or unwanted bedding, towels, curtains etc? Please join the LAARF group and get involved.


It really, really makes a difference to the welfare of the animals.


Thank you

But if you are not, please also let me know and I will try and find out where your closest cat refuge is.

Hi Celia,

Thank you, and I hope you're able to join the group and join in with the volunteering. All the volunteers have the same concerns - falling for them, feeling sorry for them, etc, which is why this group is such a good idea as you have moral support!

Good luck!

Jane.

Thank you Jane for posting this. I've never visited any of my local refuge centres for the simple reason that I'm afraid I might have to bring at least one home with me. I already have one rescue dog brought from the UK 10 years ago and am struggling not to adopt another as we really can't afford it! Visiting, grooming, walking them on a regular basis will help both them and me – I hadn't thought of that!
Thanks again
