I'm asking because I had it in my head that I should list this experience one way, but now that I'm physically typing it, I'm doubting myself...
I have a lot of experience with an organization that solely does spay and neuter vouchers. I've been a caller/qualifier for the program. When people request vouchers, I call them back, discuss they're situation and they're need and ultimately decide whether or not they qualify for our program. I never actually ever touch an animal with this work but obviously I spend a lot of time discussing/educating people. Due to the lack of physical animal handling, I was originally going to classify this as volunteer, but the that tab on VMCAS says "Volunteer (not animal related)." This experience IS animal related just not in the traditional way.
I know it ultimately doesn't matter all that much, but what do you guys think? Animal experience or Volunteer?
