SPCA calls for more volunteers
The Prince Albert SPCA has put out a call for volunteers of all kinds.
The SPCA will host an information night at Carlton Comprehensive High School Monday and Liana Maloney, manager of operations, said anyone interested in volunteering can attend.
The evening, Maloney said, will outline events planned for the year and explain some of the in-shelter programs like Puppy Playmates and Feline Friends. These types of programs help the animals become more adoptable, she said, and it only takes an hour of training to participate in certain programs.
“When [people] come in for programs like Puppy Playmates we’d have them bring in toys that make certain noises, introducing [the animals] to going into a crate for a little while, giving them treats, playing with their paws, getting them used to having their ears touched and their feet touched and introducing new sights and sounds to them,” Maloney explained.
