Meet Sofie! RASKC’s spotlight shines on fifth grader Sofie Ball and her mom Regina.
Animal Care Technician Natasha Coates exclaimed, “Sofie and Regina Ball volunteer every week on our Kirkland Team, often times picking up extra shifts. They are 100% reliable, always upbeat and energetic. EVERYTHING gets done, and they always ask if there are extra projects that need to be done. They are great advocates for getting the word out to friends and family as to which animals need a home. They have a HUGE heart for animals, and Sofie wants to be a veterinarian when she grows up!”
Sofie is so excited about volunteering, her face lights up every time she arrives for a shift. Sofie memorizes all the animals’ names and character traits, so she can help people find the perfect pet.
“We especially love working with RASKC Animal Care Technician Natasha, socializing the cats and dogs, and seeing the animals find their warm cozy homes,” Sofie and Regina said.
Sofie plays piano and guitar and helps to care for Daisy, her Miniature Schnauzer. She can often be found making slime and even runs a slime company called Plum Puppies! Her mom is especially proud that Sofie is a kind and loving person.
Regina volunteers at the elementary school teaching art and promoting emergency preparedness and sustainability work. Sofie describes her mom as “amazing, thoughtful, funny, aware, and someone who loves animals, especially dogs.”
Thank you, Sofie and Regina!
