Play with the animals: FACE has cats, kittens and dogs meowing and barking for your attention. Petting a cat, playing with a kitten or throwing a ball with a dog is not only fun but helps in their socialization and gives them a better chance at adoption. Bring your cell phone and make calls or bring your laptop and get some work done all the while providing much appreciated human contact for the animals.

Clean cages: FACE performs 50 spay/neuters a day, Monday through Thursdays. That’s 50 cages which need cleaning every evening. At the end of a day of surgery there is much for FACE staff to do. Whether it is repacking and sterilizing surgical utensils, mopping and cleaning the surgical suite, discharging patients or running the evening wellness clinic it is a very busy time for all. Volunteers who can commit to one evening a week (one to two hours) to help clean cages provide a greatly appreciated service which allows FACE to do the most possible with limited resources.
Assist with front office tasks: The FACE Spay/Neuter Clinic provides vaccines to more than 150 animals every week. Our volunteers prepare the rabies tags that go home with our vaccinated patients. Stuffing newsletters, preparing elizabethan collars, and filing patient records are also important to our daily operation.
Volunteer for special events: Whether it’s FACE’s sponsorship of National Homeless Animal Day, Art for Animals, the Irvington Halloween Festival or one of many other events FACE sponsors or participates in, volunteers make it happen. Contact Ellen Robinson at ellenr@facespayneuter.org to discuss specific interests on your part or needs on FACE’s part.
Foster an animal: A short or long-term commitment, help care for animals at home who require intensive socialization or whom the clinic is unable to accommodate.
