Volunteer Spotlight: Jolie

Jolie began volunteering with Butte Humane Society in August of this year. In that time she jumped right in and has been incredibly helpful to staff and great with our animals. She volunteers with our cats and in our warehouse.

Jolie’s favorite area to volunteer is with our cats.she loves to sit quietly and patiently in the cattery and see who comes to her. She especially loves connecting with the shy cats, and gets a lot of joy when they allow her to interact with them. This is a talent not all possess, and it allows our cats to acclimate and begin trusting again. A lot of joy comes to seeing the cats that were very timid go to loving homes, and knowing she played a part in that.

Jolie’s most impactful moment comes from witnessing BHS’s staff. She said, “The biggest impact on me is seeing how thoroughly the staff vet the adoptees and care about the placement of each animal looking for a home.”

Jolie is fantastic with helping in our warehouse. Her favorite part about volunteering with BHS is knowing that she is helping the staff. In her own words: “I can see their relief when I help in the warehouse.” The warehouse can be a messy area to volunteer, and she jumps in without complaint and keeps a fantastic attitude.

Jolie has her own pets at home she loves hanging out with. She has a 10 year old mixed breed dog and an 11 year old BHS alumni cat. Having started as an adopter, it is great to see her come full circle, and join as a part of our team. Volunteers like Jolie keep BHS running. Staff all love her, and are all so grateful she is with us.
