Our vision for volunteering
Volunteering is and always will be at the heart of Cats Protection. It is joyful and inclusive. As a charity, working in partnership, together we transform the lives of cats, people and communities.
The difference you will make to cats and people
At Cats Protection we passionately believe that neutering cats before they can breed is an essential part of cat ownership, and without neutering, the UK’s cat population would quickly get out of control. Our neutering volunteers help spread positive neutering messages and make it easier for owners on low incomes to get their cats neutered. They help raise awareness of the benefits of neutering, promote our neutering schemes and respond to enquiries from members of the public.
You can expect us to
· make you feel welcome, included and respected in line with our values and behaviours
· support you in having a positive and impactful experience at Cats Protection
· cover agreed out-of-pocket expenses in line with our Expenses Policy
· provide you with access to learning, development and engagement opportunities
What we need from you
You’ll be:
· promoting the benefits of neutering and our neutering schemes
· responding to enquiries about neutering
· completing relevant neutering paperwork and distributing neutering vouchers
· following up with cat owners to make sure that vouchers are used
· ensuring all cats and kittens are neutered in line with Cats Protection policies and procedures
Time expectation
Our neutering volunteers usually spend between two to four hours a week in this role, which is flexible and can be shared by more than one volunteer if needed.
You may be just the volunteer we’ve been looking for!
If you have any questions about the role, please get in touch with insert recruiter name and email address for an informal conversation.
We are committed to building a diverse, compassionate and inclusive organisation where everyone can be themselves and do their best. We are courageous and compassionate in our purpose of helping people see the world through cats’ eyes. Together, we can make a difference. Together, we are all for cats. Join the UK’s leading cat welfare charity and help make a better life for cats, because life is better with cats.
