Welcome!

Thank you so much for dedicating your time and love to our animals in need!

Desert Paws Rescue (“Desert Paws,” “DPR,” or “DP”) considers volunteers essential to the welfare and proper placement of our animals.

Volunteers provide:

  • A healthy and safe environment for adoptable cats and kittens.

  • Quality food and litter to ensure that the foster remains healthy.

  • Interactions that help develop social skills.

  • Lots of exercise and playtime to help them develop into great pets!

This Feline Volunteer Guide was designed to provide you with information regarding Desert Paws Rescue Volunteer Program operations and volunteer expectations. It is important that you read through each entry to ensure that you are aware of expectations regarding Desert Paws Rescue adoption services and events.
