From pawsatlanta.org/events/wild-tunes ↗About this program
Wild Tunes [link http://wildtunes.org/] , a program bringing volunteer musicians to shelter animals, is now available at PAWS Atlanta. Musicians, both professional and hobbyists, can join us in our Cat Cottage to perform for our cats, providing enrichment and destressing while they wait for their forever homes.
Founded in 2023 by 10-year-old Yuvi Agarwal, Wild Tunes (501c3) is dedicated to soothing shelter animals by encouraging volunteer musicians to play instruments or sing to bring comfort and companionship to shelter pets. By performing live music and creating soothing melodies, Wild Tunes aims to help pets build a positive association with humans and increase their chances of being adopted.
We are actively onboarding volunteers to be part of this program, and you do not need to be an existing PAWS Atlanta volunteer to participate.
