Calling all cat lovers! Marin Humane's Hopalong Foster Program is seeking new volunteers to help care for the cats and kittens at our Oakland office. You'll have the opportunity to meet and care for a wide variety of kitties in this role, which is the perfect blend of cleaning and cuddling. As an Animal Care Volunteer, you’ll provide hands-on care by feeding, cleaning cages, doing laundry and dishes, and socializing kitties temporarily housed at Hopalong’s Oakland office. Volunteer shifts are available seven days a week and at a variety of times, so you should be able to find a time that fits conveniently into your existing schedule. Our next volunteer orientation is coming up on Tuesday August 27th at 6pm - please register at https://marinhumane.org/get-involved/volunteer/ to join us! Time Commitment: Two hours per week, or every other week on a regularly scheduled shift. Qualifications: Comfortable bending, squatting, and kneeling; ability to lift up to 15 pounds comfortably; will require standing/walking for the majority of the shift; ability to work independently; experience handling cats preferred but not required! Duties: Help staff in caring for the physical and emotional well-being of cats and kittens in the Oakland office; provide kitties with clean water and food, scoop litter boxes, clean cat rooms or cages, do laundry, wash dishes; groom and socialize kitties; help monitor our animals, providing valuable feedback to staff about concerns and observations.
