Cat Volunteer Orientation

Interested in supporting the wonderful cats of STAF as a volunteer? Then we would love for you to join us at Cat Volunteer Orientation and experience what a great impact volunteers have on the lives of our fantastic feline friends!

If you would like to attend Cat Volunteer Orientation on this date, please email our Cat Orientation Team at CatOrientation@staf.org to make an appointment. We ask that you please register 24 hours or more in advance. New volunteers will also need to complete a brief application which can be downloaded via the link below. If possible, please attach your completed application to your appointment email. If you need to print your completed application and bring it to orientation or you need to fill out an application at the shelter, just let us know in your email. In addition, new volunteers will need to sign a release form. This can also be downloaded below. Please print and complete this form and bring it with you to orientation. Copies are also available at the shelter.

Please note that some shifts are full, so please be prepared to be flexible in your scheduling. We also have several shifts in need of additional volunteers. First and foremost is the Saturday evening shift who would greatly appreciate any dedicated, long-term help. In addition, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday mornings as well as Friday and Monday evenings are in need at the moment.

This is a hands-on orientation – dress to get furry! Orientation starts promptly at the time indicated below. Thank you for your interest and we hope to see you soon!
