RE: Volunteering at an Animal Shelter. [Meet Posh AKA Cinnamon Buns!]
Aww, that would be good for your soul! I volunteered in an animal rescue center in the Amazon jungle a few years ago. We spent most of the time picking up shit as well. But the animals were beautiful. Well, except some of the monkeys that wanted to attack everyone...
The Amazon would have been an incredible experience! What was the most interesting animal you worked with? .. but of course heartbreaking to know why these animals need saving... deforestation on an unimaginable scale.
Thanks so much for leaving a comment, AM.

I liked the birds. You could go in the cages with them and they would come and land you and were curious about what you were doing. Some animals are there for life (if they'd been rescued and were caged their whole lives) but their goal is to set as many free as possible once they are rehabilitated. You aren't allowed to touch these animals so they don't get used to humans.
