Love cats? Want to help play and socialize our kitties (and clean their cubbies...) before they go to their forever homes? This is your opportunity!! Please fill out the following volunteer application so we know how to contact you, what you're interested in and you are properly registered: https://tailsct.z2systems.com/projectList.jsp To sign up for a volunteer cat caretaking orientation - please sign up here: www.tailsct.org and click on our Calendar to see upcoming orientations. Here's a little history.... In March 2017, TAILS moved into the 4-unit, cat adoption space at the Petco-Westport located at 1850 Post Road East(next to Michaels & Home Goods). Each day we go visit our furry charges and clean their litter, feed them, play with them and give them some general loving! We have two daily shifts to help make sure the kitties have lots of opportunity to be played with, fed and cubbies cleaned - and we need help! (Especially during the morning shift). We are hoping for 60-90 minutes (or more!) of your time during one of these daily shifts: 1030am-230pm or 4-730pm, M-Sat and 1030-230 or 4-645pm on Sunday. Note: you don't have to go the entire shift - it's 90 or so minutes during that shift. Whether you can commit to one night a week or once every other week (or once/month?) - that would be great! It's easy and you really are making a difference! Cat caretaking must be done during the store's hours (9am-8pm, M-S, 10-6 on Sun) and we have specific shifts as noted above which are managed by an online calendar which you receive access to once you've gone through orientation. Mandatory requirements: 1) fill out volunteer form (link below), 2) Volunteer orientation (30-45 minute orientation at store; you will be contacted once you sign up). All supplies are provided. To sign up for one of our orientations -- PLEASE PRE-FILL OUT OUR VOLUNTEER FORM HERE: https//tailsct.z2systems.com/projectlist.jsp We welcome responsible children as volunteers if accompanied by an adult and teens, based on successful completion of a probation period (and parental signature), the child/children can volunteer solo/pairs. Please note: we also have the same opportunity at the Petco in Norwalk (next to Walmart/Panera Bread) at 650 Main Ave. Please email with any questions - info@tailsct.org Thank you!

Love cats? Always wanted to help those kitties looking for their forever homes in a positive, friendly way? This is your opportunity! :) We ask everyone to please fill out the following volunteer application so we know how to contact you, what you're interested in and you are properly registered: https://tailsct.z2systems.com/projectList.jsp To sign up for a cat care taking volunteer orientation (mandatory) - please go to our website at www.tailsct.org, click on Calendar and sign up for the next orientation at the Main Ave Petco store in Norwalk. Each morning and evening we need to go visit our furry charges and clean their litter, feed them, play with them and give them some general loving! Ideally our volunteers also go during the day whenever they can to socialize as well - but the locked-in times we need are feeding/cleaning/playing in the morning and early evening timeframe. Whether you can commit to one shift a week or once every other week (or once/month?) - that would be great! It's easy and you really are making a difference! Cat caretaking must be done during the store's hours (basically 9am-9pm, M-S, 9-6pm on Sun) and around what is considered "normal" feeding times. An orientation and filling out our volunteer application are mandatory. Please click on the link in this listing to fill out the volunteer application and we will email you back regarding orientations scheduled. All supplies are provided. For our calendar of orientations and to sign up - https://tailsct.z2systems.com/np/clients/tailsct/publicaccess/eventCalendarBig.jsp PLEASE PRE-FILL OUT OUR VOLUNTEER FORM HERE: https//tailsct.z2systems.com/projectlist.jsp We welcome responsible children as volunteers if accompanied by an adult and teens, based on successful completion of a probation period (and parental signature), can volunteer solo/pairs. We also have kitties at the Westport Petco (near Home Goods/Michael's and across from Shake Shack) and the Petco located at 431 Westport Ave, Norwalk. Please note: TAILS is a no-kill organization - meaning that we only euthanize due to medical necessity. All of our kitties are destined for homes. :) Thank you!
