As some of you know we are taking a few steps back from rescue, slowing the pace until we get some issues sorted out personally.
That being said, I literally walked into a colony of 30+ cats a few days ago & unfortunately, I can't stand back and not offer assistance.
I am wondering if there might be any strong souls out there that are interested in learning about ferals, their care and would be willing to help with chores? When our numbers rise, the extra chores add up. Chores like sweeping & cleaning in between crates, removing litter spattered damp newspaper from crate bottoms. This is done daily, but certainly adds a lot to our plate when numbers in rescue are over 15. Especially when we get multiple ferals who prefer to dump their water dish and throw pounds of litter in the mix, EVERY day over being more controlled and, not throwing a litter confetti party. Dishes are done every 2-3 days when we are at 15, every 1-2 days when numbers exceed that.
Surgery days are days we really need the extra help, as cats are being loaded at ugly hours in the mornings. I'm away all day to surgery and by the time I get back I'm completely exhausted and as any good procrastinator knows, leave something for a day and it's 10 times as hard the next day.
Our rescue is a woodworking, warehouse setting, so if you are sensitive to dust, probably not a good fit as we normally have a couple work projects on the go.
Ideally candidates are available for 1-3 hours every couple days. Surgery days are typically Monday's and Wednesdays. Hours can be flexible, so being we establish trust & the extra chores can be done anytime, and we would welcome afternoon/night shifts for people who work but are angels and still want to lend a hand after a hard days work.
We are looking for people who are self motivated, with little supervision. Quiet, calm and resilient. As ferals give you a run for your money(not that we have any 💸🤪).
This will be more temporary than full time as we do hope to get back down to 10 and under as quickly as we can.
Pictures are of typical amounts of bowls needing to be washed & dried and the way we want crates to look vs how the cats think they need to be.
Please CALL 705-706-3428 if you might be willing to help the kitties that need us so desperately!
