Trap/Hold/Transport |
|
We need volunteers 18 years of age of older to help care for our cats at our Petco adoption centers located in Owings Mills and Glen Burnie. The cages need to be kept neat and clean, the food and water replaced and the litter boxes scooped. It only takes a few minutes to do and is crucial to our organization. Do one or more day a week, mornings or evenings.
MORNING VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! 6631 Ritchie Highway, Glen Burnie, MD 21061
|
We need reliable people to help us transport cats to and/or from the spay/neuter clinic. We also really need help with holding cats overnight before and after the clinics. They would remain in traps. |

| Foster Families | Feeders | |
|
Foster families temporarily house and care for one or more cats or kittens. All you need to provide is a safe, clean and loving environment, plenty of TLC, and make sure the cat has a clean litter box and fresh food and water.
Fosters are needed for adult cats, litters of kittens, feral kittens needing socialization, bottle babies, and nursing moms.
You would foster the cat as long as you were comfortable or until the point of adoption. It would be helpful if you would allow visitations with potential adopters in your home but we can also arrange to do them elsewhere.
You must be 18 or older. If you are not the homeowner or primary leaseholder we will need their permission. We strongly prefer that you have your own transportation.

Caring folks are desperately needed to distribute food and water to various sites containing stray and feral cats. Please email us to learn about how you can get involved with a cat colony in your area.

Cleaning and Disinfecting Equipment |
||
| Can you commit to helping clean traps and carriers every other week? You would pick them up in Pikesville, take them to a self-serve car wash about 10 minutes away, hose them off inside and out, spray them with a bleach solution (provided), allow it to sit for 10 minutes, hose them off again and drop them off where you picked them up. Usually takes less than an hour, and we give you cash for the car wash. | ||

Flyer Distribution |
Shelter Builders |
|
| Anyone can help raise money or
increase adoptions for FRA! Post flyers for us in coffee shops, at pet
supply stores, and in community areas. Please print these flyers or
email us to request that we mail you some for distribution in your area.

Like making things? You can make shelters for cats to keep them warm in the cold winter months and beyond. The basic construction involves cutting holes into plastic storage containers and lining them with styrofoam. These simple structures may be the difference between life and death for feral cats. You will be provided with instructions and reimbursed for any expenses incurred. |
