davis_squareI'm thinking of volunteering at a pet shelter. Looking for recommendations. Basically I'm just interested in being around cats.
Normally my strong bias is to stick geographically to Somerville or Cambridge or other close towns. However there don't seem to be very many shelters, and all of them seem to be no-kill, which might be a little too much intensity for me to take on right now for a volunteer activity. At one point I volunteered at MSPCA in Jamaica Plain, I was impressed with their organization, but at least at that time, the commute there was a bit too much. I'm thinking maybe the Animal Rescue League of Boston might be more reasonable in that regard.
