Help needed! If you have any spare time to give, we are always grateful for more volunteers. We are currently looking for the following roles.
Please note we're a 'virtual branch' with no central premises. You'll mostly be working flexibly from home or out and about in the community depending on the role, with occasional meetings with other volunteers.
Therefore the ability to motivate yourself and communicate by phone and/or email are a must!
If you are interested and would like to know more, either apply via the the links below or call our helpline on 0345 260 1503. They'll take a message and a committee member will call you back.
Volunteer fosterer
Across Cats Protection there are thousands of cats and kittens needing temporary homes until they find their forever families. Many of our feline friends are cared for by volunteer fosterers in their homes or in purpose built pens in their gardens. Most of our volunteer fosterers care for one or two cats at a time, which makes a huge difference and gives these cats a second chance at a happy life. They provide vital hands on care and accommodation to stray, abandoned or injured cats and are part of a dedicated team of volunteers committed to finding new homes for cats in need.
Closing date: 28 Apr 2018
Volunteer re-homing team leader
At Cats Protection we will continue to find new homes for cats and kittens in need until our work around information, education and neutering reduces the long-term need for homing. Life in a rescue environment is never ideal for any cat compared to a loving home. Our rehoming team leaders support a team of volunteer home visitors who collectively play an important part in matching our feline friends with their new families.

Enquiries Volunteer
As a charity we receive numerous enquiries on a daily basis from members of the public related to cats and feline welfare. Our enquiries volunteers are part of a passionate team of volunteers that help Cats Protection signpost and manage these enquiries. They help our feline friends answering questions from members of the public, providing advice and signposting queries to other volunteers and staff if needed.
