Missing Pet Partnership (MPP), a Federal Way-based nonprofit organization, has partnered with the Regional Animal Shelter of King County (RASKC) in Kent, Washington to help families this July 4 whose dogs and cats become lost due to fireworks.
Volunteers are needed from noon to 6 p.m. Thursday, July 5 and Friday, July 6
These “Mission Reunite” volunteers will be trained to help pet owners at the shelter in Kent by giving them free “Lost Pet” posters, tagging vehicles with neon window markers, and offering lost pet consultations.
This is the fifth year that Missing Pet Partnership has offered assistance to King County families following July 4 fireworks.
Those interested in volunteering will need to attend a mandatory 4-hour Mission Reunite training seminar offered at the RASKC shelter at 21615 64th Ave. South Kent from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday June 30.
Training is open to anyone 15 years and older.
To sign up for the training and volunteer work, contact volunteer program manager Sarah Luthens at 206-296-3946 or e-mail sarah.luthens@kingcounty.gov.
Tax deductible donations to help pay for expenses involved in the project can be sent to “Missing Pet Partnership” at Missing Pet Partnership, P.O. Box 3085, Federal Way, WA 98063.
