Good afternoon. We are in need of a few cat loving people to help with our nightly care duties at our adoption center. N Tampa Pet Depot 16033 Tampa Palms Blvd W, Tampa, FL 33647.
Duties include cleaning and sanitizing the condos, cleaning cat boxes, feeding, and watering the kitties. And most of all, giving love to our adoptables.
We supply everything needed, including play tents for exercise and out time.
We require you to arrive at least an hour to hour and half before the store closes (closes at 8 except Sundays closes at 7), and we need volunteers Sunday-Friday.

We are also looking for fosters.

Mission Statement

We focus on the humane actions of Trap Neuter and Return (TNR) as a preferred and successful means to controlling the stray cat population. Through TNR stray cats/kittens are humanely trapped, then spayed or neutered through a local clinic, vaccinated for rabies and then returned to their colony to live out their lives. The colonies are managed by caring individual volunteers. TNR has been shown to be the least costly as well as the most efficient and humane way of stabilizing feral cat populations. Through donations of food and financial contributions, we manage the health of the feline communities though health checkups and annual vaccinations, along with specific healthcare as needed.

Description

We recently started doing kitten adoptions. We still outsource many kittens to other rescues but now we do some adoptions ourselves! We’d love to have more kennel volunteers and self motivated fosters.

The rescue founder started the nonprofit in 1998 but slowly did less and less as she was not able to manage it. However, now we are gearing back up which means we need reliable volunteers! Our yearly goals are 300-600 TNR (trap neuter return) and as many kittens as we have solid lifetime adopters.
