What: Cleaning cages and monitoring cat health and behavior. Providing fresh food and water and toys and bedding as needed. And most importantly some much needed love, attention, and stimulation!
Where: Chico's Natural Pet Market in Falls Church, VA.
How: Cat caregivers can work alone or in teams, which may be beneficial in some situations as time flies when you're having fun with the kitties! You can work alone or with another volunteer to take care of the kitties
When: Shifts take place in the mornings and evenings. Some volunteers choose to help more than once a week, on a weekly basis, every two weeks, once a month, or some other regular schedule. We are always in need of help.
Time Needed: Time involved depends on the number of cats and the amount of time you want to spend with them. We are grateful for any amount of time you can offer, as long as it is consistent. The Adoption Center takes 1-3 hours to care for 16 cats. (People often stop by to ask about our cats).
