This volunteer opportunity involves caring for adoptable cats and kittens at our facility. Responsibilities include feeding, cleaning, health monitoring, administering medication, and socializing kittens who are awaiting a foster home.
Feral Fixers rescues adoptable stray cats and kittens through our feral cat TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) activities. We need experienced volunteers to care for these animals while they are temporarily housed at our facility before transitioning to a foster home.
Many of the cats and kittens we rescue require basic medical care, including medication. Additionally, some kittens are shy, scared, or hissy due and need special handling and socialization. Volunteers for this opportunity should have a wide range of experience in cat and kitten handling or kitten fostering, and who have worked in a shelter or veterinary setting are especially needed.
This is a rewarding opportunity to help a cat on its journey from rescue to adoption!
Volunteers must be 18+, commit to a recurring weekly shift, and attend training.
Morning availability is particularly needed.

Feral Fixers is an organization dedicated to practicing and promoting Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) in DuPage County, Illinois.
Description
Our Goals:
(a) To educate local governments and the public on the benefits of a Trap, Neuter, Return (TNR) program in DuPage County.
(b) To humanely control the population of feral cats in DuPage County, Illinois, primarily through a Trap, Neuter, Return (TNR) program.

Our Long-term goal: To reduce both the number of cats euthanized and the feral cat population in DuPage County while improving the quality of life for both cats and humans through the high-volume use of low-cost or free spay-neuter services to sterilize feral, semi-feral, stray and domestic cats.
