ORGANIZATION: Best Friends Animal Society

Community Cats
Ear tipped community cats

We’ve launched a very exciting project and we could use your help! In partnership between Best Friends Animal Society and Bakersfield Animal Care Center, we’d like to introduce The Bakersfield Community Cats Program, where we will spay and neuter 6000 cats by 2021. The project will effectively reduce the number of cats killed in shelters through a proven successful trap-neuter-return program.

This lifesaving endeavor will involve trapping, neutering, vaccinating and returning community cats to their original outdoor locations. Not only is this the most humane method of preventing cats from entering the shelter system, but it’s also the most effective.

We need your help to make this program a success! Volunteer opportunities include:

  • Kennel Assistant
  • Community Cats Ambassador & Neighborhood Canvasser
  • Community Cat Trapper & Transporter
  • Community Cat Transporter
  • Office/Hotline Assistant

If you’re interested in volunteering to help the cats, please read the detailed position descriptions here- https://bestfriends-my.sharepoint.com/:f:/g/personal/kimberlyb_bestfriends_org/EjjVnjmGVnFAvg-Cfc85qcUBtTjubM-NoxgOLeG6cwOJOg?e=zEqSMz
