The volunteer opportunity is primarily cleaning. Cat cuddling and grooming are important, but the priority is for the cats to have a clean environment and be fed and watered. FRFA needs consistent, reliable volunteers that can commit to a minimum of a four hour shift once a week and we prefer a minimum three month commitment. However, it is a great opportunity to spend time with all of our favourite furry friends, in a welcoming, inclusive environment. You would get a thorough, but gentle, workout- no need to go to the gym. Exact duties, which would be determined after an initial visit, would depend on the individual. They would consist of some combination of cleaning cages, cleaning litter boxes, cleaning food bowls, brushing cat trees, feeding and medication, and grooming.

FRFA is on a bus route in the McCall Lake area, east of Deerfoot Trail, between 32nd Ave & McKnight Blvd NE. This opportunity is best suited to those that drive, or regularly take Calgary Transit.

Mission Statement

Feline Rescue Foundation of Alberta (FRFA) is a "no-kill" shelter located in Calgary, has been operating since 2000. FRFA’s mandate is to provide rescue, rehabilitation, re-homing or sanctuary for feral, abused and abandoned street cats and kittens.

Description

FRFA's mission is to prevent animal suffering and critical overpopulation through spaying and neutering. All cats and kittens we rescue are vaccinated, dewormed, spayed/neutered and provided with identification. The injured and ill are treated. Cats are housed at FRFA’s shelter until they can be adopted into forever homes, and sanctuary is provided for those unlikely to be adopted. We provide free spay/neuter for low income cat owners and those caring for feral colonies. In addition we assist seniors and low income cat owners with emergency care or assistance with crisis situations.
