Do you love cats? Do you want to be a part of an enthusiastic team providing low-barrier spay and neuter services? Can you work in a fast-paced environment on your feet for a few hours every week or two?
Feral Cat Spay/Neuter Project is seeking additional volunteers to support the operations of our clinic in Lynnwood, WA, which serves 30-40 cats a day from all sorts of situations: feral cats, owned pets, sheltered cats seeking their forever homes, and more. Our Lynnwood clinic operates 4 days a week, Mondays through Thursdays.
Current volunteer opportunities include:
- Surgery Prep: Vaccinating anesthetized patients and shaving/scrubbing their surgical sites
- Surgery Recovery: Monitoring cats after surgery to ensure they are waking up from anesthesia appropriately
- Surgery Packs: Cleaning/sorting surgical instruments and assembling surgical packs
- Clinic Maintenance: Cleaning and restocking the clinic after surgeries conclude for the day
Prior animal handling/veterinary experience is helpful, but not required. We will train you! Learn more about our project and submit a volunteer application on our website: http://feralcatproject.org/volunteer/ Or, feel free to email us at: volunteer@feralcatproject.org
Thank you for considering us! ♥
