Nine Lives Aruba Foundation KvK# S163
Volunteer With The Foundation
Local Volunteer
We are always looking for help taking care of the cats and kittens in our care during the week between 9 am - 11 am and 5 pm - 7 pm. You can help with feeding the cats, cleaning their cages, providing them with medicine, and of course playing with them and giving them cuddles.
If you are coming to Aruba for vacation and would like to spend a few hours of your time volunteering, we welcome you as well.
MICHELLE SABAJO
We love to give our friends and followers a glimpse ‘behind the scenes’ of the daily life of Nine Lives Aruba Foundation! Meet volunteer Michelle “Elle” Sabajo! Elle has been a volunteer with Nine Lives from the beginning, where she helps out as a “Poop Scooper”, as we like to call our volunteers who are in charge of keeping our cat enclosures clean and comfy for our cats.
Elle has multiple shifts every week and she is known for her sharp eye for every detail of the cats’ health and maintenance and her easy touch with the more ‘difficult’ cats. But she does more than Poop Scooping! As a Marketing student at the University, she always has savvy advice to give a creative touch to our campaigns.
You will see Elle more often behind the camera than in front of it, where again she uses her creativity to make our cats shine! And last but not least, if we need an extra hand at our special events like Adoption Days or Garage Sales,
Elle can be depended on again!
We are thankful for our volunteers, the quiet motors of our foundation!
Volunteer as a Transporter
Additional Information
We first try to find homes for the animals in our care in Aruba. However, many of our adoptions are to forever homes in the U.S. Animals cannot fly on a commercial airline alone, they need to be accompanied by a human.
The responsibility of a transporter (or flight Angel as we like to call them) is simply to be that person accompanying the animal to their forever home. If you have ever flown with your own pets, it is a very similar process. There is NO financial obligation to you as a transporter.
