Robin Anderson : Volunteer Spotlight
“I have been volunteering as a kitten foster for Furry Friends since September of 2022,” says Robin.
“To say it’s a 24/7 paws-ition is truly an understatement … lol. My favorite part about being a foster is experiencing all of the different kitten personalities and just simply having fun with them. My biggest challenge is when I have litters of three or more. I really have my hands full then!
“My proudest moments as a foster are knowing that these little ones are getting a second chance at life and that they’ll all be placed in loving forever homes.
“Outside of Furry Friends, I work as an interior designer. As to why I give back? It’s in my nature. I’m also a Rotarian and believe in being involved in the community to help make the world a little brighter. Although there are many issues, I’m especially passionate about, animal welfare is at the top of the list.
“Ironically, the pets I have at home are two of my first fosters, Rory and Lorelei! And, last but not least, when it comes to hobbies, sewing has been a hobby of mine for over 40 years.”
