**What You Could Help With:** - Dogs & Puppies - feeding, cleaning kennels and runs, walking and providing enrichment and socialisation. - Cats & Kittens - feeding, cleaning enclosures, assisting with socialisation and enrichment. - Small Animals (e.g. rabbits, guinea pigs) - feeding, cleaning hutches, and spending time socialising with them. - Hospital care - supporting our team with cleaning, preparing food, restocking supplies, and caring for unwell or recovering animals. - Other Animals - supporting the care of birds, reptiles, and other species. You may choose to focus on one area or assist across several, depending on your interests and availability.
