☑️The Saratoga County Animal Shelter welcome volunteers from all backgrounds, offering mentoring and team building events while playing a vital role in keeping the shelter’s furry residents safe and secure as they await their forever homes.
☑️The Saratoga County Department of Aging and Youth Services' Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) promotes older adults to remain involved in their community by using the skills and talents they have developed over the years, or to develop new ones, and to increase their socialization and feeling of purpose.

It's time for another update!

"Sending off a quick update on Crumb. She’s been coming out and hanging out in either of my large windows or in the arm chair in the living room. She’s been really brave and coming out/approaching me for attention while I’m home and relaxing before or after work. I figure you guys would appreciate the update on this anxious little girl."

It's so wonderful when our shy kitties get a chance to settle in and really show off their purrfect purrsonalities. It looks like Crumb has hit the adoption jackpot! Thank you! 😻

Adjusting to a new environment doesn't happen overnight! When you bring a new pet home, it can take up to 3 months for your pet to feel truly comfortable- and even longer for some pets! Give your new pet some grace as they adjust to their new owner and their new lifestyle. It's worth the wait! 🐾
