If you have been thinking about volunteering at the shelter, now is the time to get started. All New Mexico House Rabbit Society volunteers have the opportunity to skip general orientation with the shelter staff and go straight to rabbit orientation through NMHRS. This option is for RABBITS ONLY. 

Volunteer opportunities include:

• Grooming: Brushing, haircuts, nail trims
• Enrichment: Taking bunnies out of their cages for exercise, petting/loving on them, making toys
• Bunny Breaks: Take home a rabbit for a few days to give them a break from the stressful environment of the shelter
•  Adoption Assistance: Update photos, bios, and kennel cards, as well as answer questions from potential adopters about proper rabbit care

No experience is required. You will be trained in any opportunity you are interested in. After rabbit orientation, you will be able to volunteer on your own time at the City of Albuquerque Eastside Shelter or participate in periodically scheduled group volunteer time.
