You can volunteer at a pet shelter at the age of 12 or 13. But at that age the only things you can do are: feeding, watering, combing and brushing. If not, they may not let children volunteer at Shelters because the fear of animals being aggressive and having the children be hurt by the animals. Just look into it and see. :)
In Oregon, the minimum age requirement to volunteer at animal shelters varies depending on the organization's policies. Some shelters may allow 11-year-olds to volunteer with adult supervision, while others may have a minimum age requirement of 16 or 18. It is best to contact the specific animal shelter you are interested in volunteering at to inquire about their age requirements and opportunities for younger volunteers.

They really shoould But you have to be at least sixteen to actually work there. actually your actually old enough.....did you try SPCA??? they usually start @ age 14....
Typically, animal shelters have age restrictions for volunteers due to safety concerns and the nature of the work involved. However, younger individuals can still contribute by participating in fundraising events, donation drives, or creating enrichment items for the animals from home. It's important to check with the specific shelter for any opportunities available for children, as some may offer special programs or events for younger volunteers.
