🚨 Volunteer Program Update! 🚨
We are absolutely blown away by the response to our very first Volunteer Orientation. 💙 Thank you to everyone who has signed up to come see what we're all about — your enthusiasm and kindness mean the world to us (and to the animals)!
Because of the overwhelming support — and the limited space in our facility — we’ve made the decision to cap the August 9th orientation to keep things comfortable and organized.
👉 BUT DON’T WORRY! We’re already planning our next Volunteer Orientation on:
📅 Saturday, August 16th
⏰ 4:30 - 5:30 PM
📍 Claws & Paws Animal Adoption Center – 18705 Gateway Rd, Lebanon, MO
If you weren’t able to snag a spot for the first one, or if August 16th works better for your schedule, we’d love to have you join us then!

🚨 BIG NEWS: We’re Launching a Volunteer Program! 🚨
We’re so excited to finally announce something we’ve been working on behind the scenes — a formal volunteer program at Claws & Paws Animal Adoption Center! 🐾
Most days, there are just one or two people caring for our 28 dog kennels and our community cat room. Every animal is fed, safe, and clean — but the one-on-one attention, enrichment, and love they truly deserve is sometimes hard to give when we’re stretched thin.
That’s where YOU come in. 💙
We’re inviting animal lovers, community members, students, retirees — anyone with a kind heart and a little time to give — to attend our first-ever Volunteer Orientation!
📍 Claws & Paws Animal Adoption Center
📅 Saturday, August 9th
⏰ 4:30 - 5:30pm
📍 18705 Gateway Rd, Lebanon, MO 65536
We’ll show you all the ins and outs of the shelter:
🐶 Dog walking & one-on-one enrichment
🐱 Cat cuddling & socialization
🚨 Opportunities to assist with animal care
🎪 Helping out at offsite adoption events
📷 Photography / Marking Support
🧹 Basic cleaning, organization, and support around the shelter
Whether you want to help once a week or just at special events — no matter where or how you want to help, we would LOVE to have you.

Our shelter animals need more than food and shelter — they need time, love, and hope. And together, we can give them all of that and more. 💕
