Rescue FAQs

The Volunteer Auxiliary For Animal Shelters, Inc. is a non-profit organization run solely by dedicated volunteers committed to helping shelter animals. Our mission is to increase adoptions and decrease euthanization at the Northern Ocean County Animal Shelter in Jackson. A large part of our adoptions are done at off-site locations, staffed solely by volunteers. These locations have enabled us to place many animals in loving homes. Foster families for cats and kittens and Petsmart adoption volunteers are currently needed. If you are interested in volunteering, please email volaux@yahoo.com. If you would like to make a donation, we are a 501(c) 3 corporation and listed as a charitable organization. Your donation is tax deductable. Please address your donation to The Volunteer Auxiliary PO BOX 1432 Bennetts Mills Rd. Jackson New Jersey 08527. Your donations give sick, injured and homeless animals a chance. If you would like to donate items we are in need of kitten milk replacement (KMR brand), dry/wet cat food, cat beds.
Our cat/kittens come from the Ocean County Animal Facility North in Jackson, NJ. We have an adoption center located in PetSmart TomsRiver.

Additional adoption info

We require all potential adopters to fill out an adoption application, please be sure to provide a vet reference. Once we receive your completed application and it is approved, one of our volunteers will contact you to set up a meet. (For the safety and well being of our animals, please be aware that only approved adopters may handle the cats at our adoption center.) All cats/kittens are spayed/neutered, microchipped up to date on shots, leuk/aids negative.
