Description

Do you have a friendly feline friend who loves attention? Share the joy of cat companionship with residents at Lyngblomsten! Our residents truly miss having cats around and would be absolutely delighted to receive some purr-fectly heartwarming visits. We're looking for volunteers with gentle, well-behaved cats to bring smiles and purrs to our senior community.

What You'll Do:

  • Brighten the day of seniors through cuddles, playtime, and gentle interaction with your cat.
  • Help fill a special need by bringing the comforting presence of a cat to residents who miss them dearly.
  • Build meaningful connections through conversation and a shared love of animals.
  • Experience the rewarding feeling of giving back to your community.

Your Cat:

  • At least one year old and up-to-date on vaccinations.
  • Comfortable and well-behaved around people and wheelchairs.

You:

  • Friendly and patient with a compassionate heart.

Time Commitment:

Flexible! Even one visit a week can make a big difference.

Ready to Make a Difference?

Our residents are eagerly awaiting some furry visitors! Contact Melanie in Volunteer Services at mjagolino@lyngblomsten.org to learn more. New volunteers will attend an orientation and complete a required Department of Human Services background study with fingerprinting (required for working with vulnerable individuals). We will walk you through this process, and there is no cost to you.
