Meow Mission is located in River Park, South Bend. We are in need of Friday and Saturday morning cat lovers. You can volunteer for as little as one day a month!
We have two cats of our own, Twilight and LB, and they need someone to come in every day and take care of them - food, water, litterboxes and loving.
We may also have ill / injured cats in kennels that need cleaned and fed. There can be none or there can be several, every week is different.
You'll also do some light housekeeping - sweeping up any messes, dishes, take out the trash.
Arrival time is between 9 and 10 am and it usually takes about an hour. Time can usually be flexible, with notice.

About The Meow Mission
Location:
2915 E Mishawaka Avenue, South Bend, IN 46615, US
Mission Statement
Our mission is to: 1) humanely and proactively reduce the free-roaming cat population of northwestern Indiana/southwestern Michigan 2) eliminate the barriers free-roaming cat caretakers encounter with spaying and neutering colony cats 3) educate the community on the merits and methods of trap/neuter/return practices
Description
Michiana faces a problem most communities face - an overpopulation of free-roaming cats. A significant amount of these cats are tame, discarded pets. Feeling compassion, many families (referred to as "colony caretakers") feed these community cats. Unfortunately, a great deal of the cats are found in low-income neighborhoods. Without our intervention, these cats will continue to breed, overwhelming our city’s residents and animal control in a never-ending cycle. With your help, we are able to reach out to these kind-hearted citizens and offer them the financial support needed to spay and neuter our community’s discarded and free-roaming cats.
