CALLING ALL BOOKWORMS! ππ
Do your kids love reading? Do they also love cats? Put their love and talents to good work and have them join our Fall Kitty Reading Book Club! Our Kitty Reading Program is recruiting new members for all book and kitty lovers, ages 8-13 years old.
At this orientation, you and your child will learn a little more about our Kitty Reading Book Club, some hands-on cat safety training, and how your child can be a Book Club member to provide our shelter kitties love and enrichment.
There’s also no cost to become a member of the Kitty Reading Book Club!
Because we want to ensure the safety and attention for all Book Club members, there are only 5 slots available per orientation. To reserve your child’s participation, or for more information, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Rose Janice at (915) 487-7596 or janicera@elpasotexas.gov.
