Needs From: United Way of South Texas

Cinderella Pet Rescue has recently expanded its facilities with new structures, while also maintaining an older building that now needs a little extra care. To help preserve these spaces and ensure they remain safe, welcoming, and functional for years to come, we are hosting a painting and beautification project.

Volunteers will play a key role in refreshing these areas by painting and improving the overall appearance of the site. This effort not only enhances the environment for the animals in our care but also supports the long-term sustainability of the rescue.

If you’re looking for a hands-on way to make a visible impact, we invite you to join us! All supplies will be provided—just bring your enthusiasm, a positive attitude, and clothes you don’t mind getting a little paint on.

Sign up today and help us create a brighter, better space for our furry friends!

Cinderella Pet Rescue currently only has one social media platform (Facebook) and a website. We need to get other platforms (es. TikTok, Instagram, etc.) established to promote the pets, the needs and the agency. The goal of more adoptions, more volunteers and more funds to support the animals should be easier with the addition of additional active social media platforms.

Communal cat rooms allow you to enjoy the attention of multiple kitties. But cats also need care, like having clean litter boxes, fresh water and food. Members of the kitty committee commit to taking care of the cat room duties one day per week. That means cleaning litter, ensuring fresh water and kibble are available and dispensing canned food. It also helps to sweep the floor to provide a clean environment for the cats to play. Then is play time. You can use toys and laser pointers to encourage exercise and play, or you can enjoy the cuddle cats that like to be held and loved on. Most of the kitties really like positive attention and reward you with plenty of purrs!

Get your exercise while you exercise a dog! Lots of great dogs need to get out of their pens so they can enjoy getting to stretch their legs and smell nature. They need to spend time socializing with new people and learning how to walk politely on a leash in order to prepare them for adoption. Some of the dogs would enjoy jogging as well. Some days, if you don't want to do a lot of walking, you can take the dog(s) to the play-yards where you can throw a ball or let them run around and entertain themselves. A variety of dogs are ready to show you around the property and show you their terrific personalities.
