Volunteer Work with Animals
“…Our task must be to free ourselves… by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and it’s beauty…” Albert Einstein
If you are interested in working with animals a good place to start would be your local SPCA
The mission of The Royal New Zealand SPCA is to advance the welfare of all animals in New Zealand by:
- Preventing cruelty to animals
- Alleviating suffering of animals
- Promoting our policies through education and advocacy
Volunteering with Animals
Do you have some spare time? Your local SPCA is always looking for more volunteers to help. Each centre will have different needs; you could help to man the phones, or walk the dogs, or even get right into it by cleaning out cages. The jobs are varied and the work is rewarding.
If you’re interested in volunteering with animals and you have the following knowledge and skills:-
1) respect for animals
2) basic animal care knowledge or willingness to learn
3) ability to work unsupervised at times
4) use your initiative
Please check out Otago SPCA: Volunteer Animal Attendant or create your talent profile to connect with opportunities to work with animals in your community.
