Volunteer stories: creating community

Volunteering at Happy Cats Haven is more than just caring for cats—it’s about finding a warm and welcoming community of fellow animal lovers. Many of our volunteers form connections not only with the cats they care for but also with each other, creating lasting friendships along the way.

One day, volunteer Elizabeth spent her shift with another volunteer, socializing with a sassy, playful black cat named Sissy.

The two volunteers chatted, laughed, and enjoyed each other’s company, all while making Sissy’s day a little brighter.

Moments like these are common at Happy Cats, as our volunteers often find themselves connecting with both cats and fellow cat lovers, creating a community where everyone feels at home.
