Need your ideas to find volunteers

[AbbyMom]

Thanks!

Flatcoatluver--Good for you! At our adoption center, 1-1/2 years is a long time for a volunteer to last. Not that I blame them. Everybody gets to a point eventually where they know it's somebody else's turn to clean litter boxes.

Laura--The senior citizens are a great idea that I didn't think of before. Silly me! We have a new senior center nearby. I will post there this week.

Another volunteer with a teenager is working the high school angle already.

Catnapper--yes we do have a "kiosk," but in our PS, the adoption center is in the dog section, so we don't reach all the potential adopters. But now that you mention it, I think I'll ask the manager for ideas for displaying leaflets in the cat section.

Anybody else got ideas?

If your store is like ours, there are windows you view the cats through? Couldn't you post a sign on one of those? Not a big one.. Something simple and small...."Be a Dear and Be a Volunteer"... Could put sayings like that on a heart shaped cut outs or cat cut outs and stick to the glass. "Hands Wanted! I need petting!" on a hand cut out...? Just throwing a few ideas at you...

Laura, Petsmart does not want any signs or poisters pasted everywhere. Just the info on the cat thats in the window. ITs a company wide thing. If the Petsmart by you has it, they could get in trouble with corporate!

Laura, Catnapper's said it. "Clutter" is not allowed. I don't mean to make them sound bad as they are very good to us.

We have a bulletin board, but like I said, it's in the dog section, so it gets limited visibility.

I think I'll use your cute "Hands Wanted! I need petting"

Thanks!

catnapper... I was saying "windows like ours" has to see the kitties through.. I didn't mean they have anything attached to them.

Abby Mom... help yourself to anything I said that can help!
