Cat socializing is important to the cats health. A happy healthy cat is our mission while they are at the shelter. Come spend time brushing and petting cats or simply playing with toys. They love the attention. This could even benefit your own health.
Everyday, our team of volunteers and staff clean kennels or cages and feed the animals. We begin cleaning at 9 am to 12 pm. If you are able to be apart of this team, sign up to be a kennel attendant team member
During our adoption hours, we always need help at the front desk to answer phones, adoption paperwork, data entry and more. If you are interested in being involved with these tasks, please visit our shelter to fill out the volunteer application.
Leila Arboretum Society has a great many opportunities for people to volunteer their time gardening outdoors. Come and help the Society and your community by coming out and joining friends and neighbors in helping to make this area a place of lush and lustrous beauty! Here are our main opportunities. You do not have to…
Communities seem more vibrant when their business districts come alive with plantings of annuals, bulbs and trees. Note: the container plantings that you see in the downtown area are planted and maintained by Leila Arboretum.
Simple things like coming in and reading a book, playing a game or putting together a puzzle is a huge help. If you enjoy gardening you can help us in our vegetable garden. Take your hobby and turn it into an activity that the residents would enjoy.
Gardeners will always be needed to help take care of an acre of plantings in the LAS Kaleidoscope Garden. This is a wonderful garden containing many small gardens of different themes.
Throughout the community, there are wonderful examples of different kinds of gardens for those who wish to specialize. There are rose gardens, rock gardens, butterfly gardens, gardens of just annuals, native wild flowers, perennial gardens, Japanese gardens etc.
Become a volunteer and get added to our database! There are endless ways you can help our homeless animals live better lives. We at HHS can always use a helping hand with day-to-day chores or walking the animals, assisting at events, creating merchandise for Re-Tails Boutique, and more.
Help by being a chaperone; going to the Zoo, the park, a movie or Battle Creek Bombers game.
