Whilst we do have some employees, much of the work completed is done by volunteers.
Cattery - 18 Charlesworth Street, Woolston
Volunteers are always needed to assist with the cleaning of the pens/runs. This is normally completed between 9am and 11am each morning. The volunteers interact with the cats while they are cleaning and can spend some one on one time with them. People with suitable skills may also assist the Cattery Supervisor with rehoming the cats during our opening hours.
If interested in volunteering, please phone the cattery on (03) 384 0006.
Shop - 475 Worcester Street, Linwood
Volunteers normally complete a three hour shift serving customers in our opportunity shop. The shop is open from 10am to 4pm weekdays and the shifts are either 10am to 1pm or 1pm to 4pm. The work involves dealing with the public, handling money, manual recording of sales and keeping the various areas tidy. If interested, please phone the office on (03) 3810 289.
Office - 475 Worcester Street, Linwood
The office is open from 10am to 4pm weekdays and either a three hour shift or a six hour shift is completed. The calls are from people requiring advice and assistance so a good knowledge of cats and being able to deal with the public professionally is required. The enquiries will either be by telephone or face to face. Sorry, we currently do not have any vacancies in the office.
Committee
The Cats' Protection League is run by a committee consisting of President, Vice President, Secretary/Treasurer and committee members. The committee meet monthly on Saturday afternoons except for December when no meeting is held. If interested, please phone the office on (03) 3810 289.
Fosterers
Most incoming cats and kittens are fosterered before they go to our catteries for rehoming. Fosterers care for the cats and kittens in a secure area of their home and rehabilitate and socialise them. Cages, beds, bedding, food etc is supplied. If you are interested in fosterering, please phone the office on (03) 3810 289.
