Helping Hands

​​We need YOU to help us provide essential services to our rescued cats and our colonies of spayed/neutered community cats. You can work directly with cats, or you can work behind the scenes on program management, fundraising and events, PR/marketing, or online promotion.

We need foster homes! If you can open your home to help homeless kitties, please fill out our Fostering Application. 

For all other types of volunteering (see opportunities below), please fill out our Volunteer Application.

Volunteering

We welcome your energy and enthusiasm for any length of time--whether you have just an hour or two to spare once a week, or are seeking a deeper level of involvement. Whatever you choose to do, you’ll be helping us give deserving kitties a better life.  If you'd like to volunteer, please fill out our Volunteer Application.

Work directly with cats:

• Fostering: Socialize kittens and cats for adoption. Interested? Fill out our fostering application.
• Colony Feeding: Provide fresh food and water to community cats in our managed, outdoor colonies.
• Socialize Cats or Kittens: Join our Socialization Center team to work with abandoned or traumatized adults; or join our Kitten Kamp team to continue socializing kittens who have transitioned from foster care.
• Rescuing: Join a team to help Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) community cats.
• Transporters: Help our rescued cats get to and from vet appointments or adoption fairs.
• Cat Recovery Helper: Provide a few days' shelter to a cat recovering from spay/neuter surgery.

Work behind the scenes on programs, fundraising/events, PR/Marketing, online promotion:
