This is our biggest need because our cats need care every day of the year!

• Work a daily shift to clean the shelter (AM and PM shifts)
• Feed the cats
• The cats quickly become like our own pets, so after our work is done, we often stay to spend one-on-one time with the cats

We have a small team of people who handle on-site medical care for our cats.

• Experience is helpful, but we can provide training if you have an aptitude for this
• Administer medication and fluids as prescribed by our vets
• Monitor health of cats in our care

We host a variety of special events and fundraisers throughout the year and it takes a lot of hands to make those events successful!

• Help plan and publicize events
• Help set up, staff and tear down after events
• Provide baked goods (for the bake sales) and prizes for other events
• Sell raffle tickets
• Post flyers

We like to get out in the community to raise awareness of our shelter and the animals we serve.

• Work 4 hour shifts at adoption events held at local pet stores and vet clinics
• Man booths at expos (Chicagoland, DuPage, etc)
• Work with members of the community to promote adoption and educate about animal care

Our shelter is in an older building and we always have a “honey do” list of things which need attention.

• Help with yard work
• Do building repair projects inside and outside the shelter
