We get patients to cooperate one way or another! 😜
Friend, I’ve made over 3500 owl posts, sharing things every day for 3 years, and I still know squat compared to what they have to learn about. When I started, I knew like 4 kinds of owls and elementary school level trivia about them. We all start from scratch at some point in our journey. Most of my posts are me sharing what I’m learning at the moment.
If you’re still interested in a few months, at least check out the volunteer meeting for your local spot or look for them if they do local public events. You can meet some of the people and animals and they can help you see if it’s something you want to try.
Otherwise, just keep checking in and I usually have at least 3 posts a day. Even if it’s a just-for-fun post, you can always ask me what’s going on with the behavior or what not. I’ll help you learn all you want to learn!
I’ll try it out! And I’ve saved your comment. If I see anyone else curious about volunteering, I’ll offer them information from the horse’s rehabber’s mouth. (I’m aware you don’t rehab horses, I’m just goofin)
It does genuinely seem like something I’d like to try, and I hope that the information I’ll glean from your posts might make my first days there a little easier! Already have a rehab and a date to check things out!
Wonderful! I’m always here to help whenever I can.
We do sort of have 2 horses, but they are the owner’s personal rescue adoption animals, they are not part of the clinic but they live there since the owner lives on the property.
Their barn and pasture is right smack in the center of everything, so we see them all day. I forget if I’ve ever got to pet them. I may have gotten to scratch one’s nose once, but they never seemed much interested in me. I believe they are pretty old, and are just there to enjoy their retirement.
That is so precious!! An old folks home housing only a couple of old pals. If I end up with any similar (non-identifiable) stories, I’ll try to post them for you!

Do you guys ever get to say hello to them? This feels almost like a mechanic with project cars hanging out just outside
