CAT CARE Volunteers are needed to care for cats each morning at the Springfield PetsMart Adoption Center in Springfield , VA. Care includes: cleaning cages, providing fresh food and water, updating a health and behavior sheet, and providing some love and attention. The morning volunteer can access the store before it opens to keep the cats on a regular feeding routine Cat care givers can work alone or in teams, which may be beneficial in some situations as time flies when you're having fun with the kitties! It takes ~2 hours to care for 10+ cats in the adoption center. We're looking for someone who can commit long-term to a regular schedule of mornings.
Volunteers must be at least 18 years old (but not younger than 14 years old), under 18 needs to be accompanied by an adult.
